Stratford Public Schools will be CLOSED on Monday, May 26, 2025 in observance of the Memorial Day holiday! Please remember our veterans and all they have given.
Hello Stratford Families, Staff and Community!
We're getting closer and closer to the final countdown. Only 12 days of school left in the 2024-25 School Year!
There are still so many cool events going on in our community (something for everyone), and the summer is just getting underway! Hope you get the chance to make it to some of them!
Have a relaxing and safe Memorial Day Weekend!
STRATFORD PUBLIC SCHOOLS COMMUNICATION PLAN - Weeks 19 & 20
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Week 19: AI in Everyday Life – Where Do We See AI?
From voice assistants (like Siri and Alexa) to smart recommendations on YouTube and Netflix, AI is everywhere! Helping kids recognize AI in their daily lives builds awareness of how these technologies work. AI powers autocorrect when they type a message, suggests songs on streaming apps, and even helps traffic lights adjust to congestion. Online shopping sites use AI to recommend products based on browsing history, while video games use AI to create smarter, more adaptive opponents. By discussing these everyday AI interactions, parents can help children understand that AI is not magic but a tool that learns from patterns and data. Encouraging kids to ask questions like “How does this app know what I like?” or “What information is it using to make suggestions?” can build their critical thinking skills and digital awareness.
Family Activity: Have a conversation about where your family encounters AI every day—whether in apps, devices, or even grocery store self-checkouts!
Week 20: Looking Ahead – The Future of AI in Education
As AI evolves, so will its role in education. SPS will continue exploring safe, ethical, and meaningful ways to use AI to support learning. Stay tuned for upcoming AI-related events and resources for families!
Final Tip: Encourage lifelong learning about AI by exploring resources like and attending future workshops on AI in education.
