2️⃣Wu makes it graduation requirement
3️⃣Colonel Sanders Institute for Fried Chicken Studies & a crispy replacement for Algebra

This is good news.
AI is here to stay and it certainly has a place, but parents are right to question how quickly it’s being introduced to young kids.
While we’re at it, let’s cut down the screen time too: more reading books, more writing, more face-to-face learning.

Replying to @OnlyInBOS
Meanwhile both LA & NYC followed all credible research on AI in schools & banned. So much for Wu being “evidence based.” After vetoing elected school committee 79% of Boston voted for, she can continue doing whatever she & her donors want—regardless of outcomes for BPS. #bospoli

Welcome to Trump admin's view of public education. Your kid sits on a laptop for 2 hours a day using AI with no teacher and their kids use vouchers to fund elite and religious private schools. We must stop this from coming to Boston and everywhere. bostonglobe.com/2026/05/01/m…

Also, it would be difficult to come up with a more chilling sentence on K-8 education in Boston in the year 2026:
“At the Elliot Innovation School in the North End, 6th graders are using chat bots to help them prepare them for the MCAS exam…” 😳

If we had elected school board members, like the rest of MA & virtually every district in US, members would listen to voters who elected them, hold public meetings & how do you think an AI graduation requirement would fare? Boston’s special! We have mayoral control of schools! 2/

by banning AI use for both students & teachers sends a bold message that AI is not conducive to learning & is in fact a disservice to the mission of education.

Tech billionaires bet big on debasing themselves from the left leaning policies/places that made them and doubled down on right wing culture assuming it would never hurt them. Now everyone hates AI and the tech pullbacks in schools is probably sealed at this point.
