A candid conversation between Meridian High School students and teachers about the reality of artificial intelligence in today's educational environment. Recorded at a December 2025 Parent Coffee, this discussion provides authentic insights into how AI tools are being used, the challenges they present, and the opportunities they create.

Principal Peter Laub and IB Diploma Programme Coordinator Josh Singer facilitate a panel featuring four students and three teachers sharing their real-world experiences with AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. From academic integrity questions to accessibility concerns, this conversation covers the practical realities of teaching and learning in an AI-integrated world.

Key topics include the evolution from Google's educational impact to today's AI revolution, current classroom practices, and how Falls Church City Public Schools is preparing students for an AI-influenced future.

This session was recorded as part of FCCPS's ongoing AI policy development process, providing community input as the School Board works to establish comprehensive guidelines for AI use in our schools.
