Rutherford County Schools urged families to consider how artificial intelligence is being used for schoolwork in a post dated Oct. 22, 2026, as part of Digital Citizenship Week, according to the district.
The district said AI can help with brainstorming, learning and exploring ideas, but should support learning rather than replace a student’s thinking. It encouraged families to ask whether AI is helping a child think or doing the thinking for them, according to the announcement.
The district directed readers to a Common Sense Media article, “Using AI Wisely for School Success,” for more information. The post did not provide dates or times for any local events or activities.
Rutherford County Schools lists its office at 2240 Southpark Drive in Murfreesboro and gives its phone number as 615-893-5812, according to the district’s website.
