Using AI Tools at PJP

Pope John Paul II High School recognizes that members of our community may use AI-powered tools to assist with drafting communications.

When used thoughtfully, these tools can support clarity, consistency, and efficiency.

All AI-assisted content must reflect the mission, values, and standards of the PJP brand and should always be reviewed by a human before use.

AI tools are intended to assist with drafting.

Responsibility for accuracy, tone, and approval remains with the author.

Guiding Principles for AI Use

When using AI to create PJP-related content:

Follow all PJP brand standards
Prioritize clarity, respect, and professionalism
Do not invent facts or misrepresent the school
Review and edit all outputs before sharing
Seek approval when required under brand usage guidelines

AI should support communication, not replace judgment.

These standards will ensure that:

AI use reflects Catholic values and human dignity

School messaging remains authentic and mission-aligned
Proper review and oversight are maintained

Additional guidance will be published once standards are finalized.

Interim Expectations

Until formal standards are released:

All official communications must be reviewed by a human before distribution

No AI-generated content may be published without appropriate oversight
Approval requirements outlined in the Usage and Approvals section remain in effect
