Americans Are United Against the Tech Takeover of Public Schools

A new report highlights growing public and educator opposition to the increasing use of technology and AI in K-12 classrooms. Petitions for moratoriums on AI in schools have emerged in major cities, and the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) has called for screen-free classrooms through second grade and a ban on student-facing AI tools in elementary schools. This contrasts with federal initiatives under the Trump administration to prioritize AI in education.
