We’re at a turning point. Artificial Intelligence is no longer on the horizon—it’s here, shaping the way we work, live, and learn. For today’s students, understanding AI won’t just be an advantage—it will be essential.
That’s why we’re launching CS + AI Ready: an initiative to help K–12 schools and districts get ready for a world where computer science and AI literacy are foundational skills.
Why CS + AI Ready?
Across the country, schools are making great strides in bringing computer science into classrooms. But AI is moving faster than anyone expected. Students graduating today will enter a workforce where AI skills and knowledge are in demand across every industry—from healthcare to finance, from the arts to engineering.
To truly prepare students, schools need both strong computer science foundations and AI education pathways that help them:
Understand how AI works and where it shows up in their lives
Think critically about ethical and societal impacts
Gain hands-on experience building with AI tools
See how AI will shape the careers of tomorrow
What We’re Doing
CS + AI Ready is building a national alliance of educators, districts, and partners who share this vision. Together, we’ll:
Provide resources to help districts assess their readiness for CS + AI
Share model policies, pathways, and curricula
Host events and conversations that bring together leaders from education, industry, and policy
Advocate for policies that ensure every student—regardless of zip code—has access to these opportunities
This is a movement, not just a program. And we want you to be part of it.
