Guidance development directed
Local AI rules
Miami-Dade board minutes of August 12, 2025 directed the superintendent to develop districtwide AI guidance, a tiered classroom framework and family communications, and report back with recommendations. They do not, on their own, prove that the proposed guidance was subsequently adopted. Families should seek any final guidance; educators and leaders need the actual approved text. A 'development directed' report is publishable as a process update, not as a claim that an operative AI policy has these proposed terms. [40]
