Welcome to Dover Area School District

Dear Eagle Community,

Recently, on August 18, 2026, the Dover Area School District board of school directors approved Policy 815.1. The purpose of this policy, “Use of Generative Artificial Intelligence in Education” is to govern the resources and practices expected within our classrooms. To help families and parents navigate the AI landscape while learning more about how the District expects it to be used, we are launching a three part parent information series.

We invite all parents and guardians to join us in the HS Large Group Instruction Room (LGI) from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM for any or all of our upcoming three-part workshop series sessions:
