The Wyoming Department of Education has released the Guidance for Wyoming School Districts on Developing Artificial Intelligence Use Policy. The guidance will assist districts in navigating the development of policies for students, staff, and school communities regarding the appropriate and responsible use of AI, particularly GenAI tools, in classroom instruction, school management, and systemwide operations.

The guidance was developed in collaboration with the Digital Learning Plan Advisory Panel, with input from seven stakeholder groups including curriculum directors, technology directors, librarians, classroom educators, instructional facilitators, elementary and middle school principals, and school board members.
