Bans the use of AI tools in evaluating Illinois public-school teachers.

What it does

Amends School Code to prohibit evaluators from utilizing artificial intelligence tools when conducting teacher evaluations.

Analyst read

AI-ban-in-teacher-evaluations: stalled in 2025 spring deadline and not revived. Likely overtaken by broader IEA/IFT-driven workforce bills like HB 4980 (meaningful human review) which capture similar policy goals more broadly.
