Lawsuit Highlights School’s AI Policy Gaps

(From EducationWeek) A Massachusetts teen’s parents are suing their child's high school after he was punished for using generative AI to outline and research an assignment. With no AI policy in place, the school gave the student detention, a lower grade, and initially blocked him from the National Honor Society. The lawsuit seeks to reverse these penalties, claiming AI use wasn’t banned at the time. Experts say this highlights the need for schools to establish clear AI guidelines as the technology evolves.
