Driving real impact with AI in schools starts with student outcomes and a clear, sustainable vision, not chasing the newest tools. In this episode, Dr. Casey Bardin, Director of Pupil Services at North Colonie Central Schools, shares how district leaders can implement AI in K–12 education in ways that meaningfully support teaching, learning, and student success.
Casey shares how his district moved from early curiosity about AI to a responsible, goal-aligned strategy rooted in academic excellence and instructional priorities. He explains how North Colonie began by using surveys to better understand student experiences and evolved into leveraging Panorama Education’s AI tools to strengthen MTSS processes, improve instructional consistency, and measure progress with real-time data. The conversation highlights how thoughtful AI integration can boost instructional rigor, increase engagement, and create more consistent, student-centered experiences across schools.
