School Policy
Is there an AI policy template for K–12 schools?
Yes. Use a free school AI use policy template as a starting point, then adapt it to your grades, approved tools, and state or district rules. It is a draft aid — not legal advice.
Most schools do not need to invent an AI policy from a blank page. A template gives you the sections leaders, teachers, and families expect: purpose, approved tools, student and teacher use, academic integrity, disclosure, privacy, safety, families, and a review date.
Treat any template as a starting draft. Your counsel, board, or district policy office should review it against local law and existing acceptable-use rules. Fill in the blanks with your grade bands, your approved tool list, and who owns updates.
Pair the written policy with practice: train staff on the approved tools, tell families what changed, and make sure the student product you choose can actually support the rules you write — visibility, tool controls, and clear expectations for homework help versus doing the work.
HeyOtto publishes a free school AI use policy template and a longer AI policy guide so you can move from outline to classroom norms without starting from zero.
