For many district and school leaders, the first step in implementing AI in their buildings is often the hardest. There’s so much curiosity about how it can be used to improve student experience and learning but how do we turn that curiosity into momentum in our schools and districts? Our guest today, Dr. Marcey Sorensen, is sharing how her district began the journey of implementing the use of AI throughout her district in an effective and intentional way.

In this episode, Dr. Marcey Sorensen, superintendent of La Joya ISD in Texas, is giving us an inside look at how she began utilizing AI throughout her district. She shares why identifying the pain points that AI can help solve within the district is a great starting point, how she got her staff to buy-in to utilizing AI at the beginning, and why she ensures that the AI tools that are used are in alignment with the needs and concerns within her district and classrooms. Dr. Sorensen is a wonderful example of how great leadership can help tackle real challenges in education by finding ways AI can support educators and improve the education for so many students.
