Today our 6th - 12th grade students attended an assembly called Staying Human, it was designed to help young people navigate artificial intelligence while protecting the core human experiences essential to learning and growth.
Three key themes that were covered in the assembly included:
The Power of Productive Struggle: Real learning happens when students think, practice, make mistakes, and solve problems. AI should support human effort, not replace the thinking required to build true capability.
Critical Thinking & Digital Safety: Students explored how to question AI-generated media, verify claims, protect their personal privacy, and rely on human judgment rather than blind trust.
Smart & Responsible AI Use: The presentation emphasized following school guidelines and respecting when assignments are meant for independent, human-only work.
Through age-appropriate demonstrations, games, and discussions, the goal was to empower students to navigate an AI-rich world while safeguarding their privacy, relationships, and independent thinking.
Luke from Gruvy Education did a great job keeping the students engaged.
