PLAINFIELD, NJ – September 17, 2025 – Plainfield Public Schools is partnering with MagicSchool, the most widely used and trusted AI platform in K–12 education, to bring powerful, educator-ready tools to classrooms across Plainfield, New Jersey. This collaboration will help teachers personalize learning, improve student outcomes, and build students’ AI literacy while ensuring strict privacy protection and alignment with school standards.
Already used by over 5 million educators across 12,000+ schools and districts, MagicSchool is helping school systems adapt to the future of learning while staying rooted in trusted teacher-student relationships and strong instruction.
Superintendent of Schools Rashon K. Hasan, Ed. S., emphasized the district’s commitment to innovation, “At Plainfield Public Schools, we are always looking for ways to provide our students with equitable access to the latest learning tools. Partnering with MagicSchool allows us to empower our teachers with AI technology that enhances instruction and prepares students for a tech-driven world. This is about supporting educators so they can focus on what they do best — teaching and guiding every child to reach their full potential.”
"Integrating MagicSchool into our classrooms is a game-changer for both students and teachers,” said Shaniesha Evans, Ed. D., District Supervisor of Career & Technical Education. “The platform is user-friendly, secure, and aligned with our district’s curriculum. This ensures that while students are learning AI skills for the future, teachers have the support and tools they need to implement it effectively and confidently.”
Why This Matters for Students, Teachers, and Families
Supports Stronger Learning Outcomes Frees up teacher time for direct student support, leading to more personalized instruction, timely feedback, and stronger academic results.
Builds AI Literacy & Career Readiness Gives students hands-on, educator-guided experience with AI, preparing them for a tech-driven world while helping close equity gaps.
Protects Student Data & Keeps AI Safe Built for schools with strict privacy safeguards and district-approved, responsible-use guardrails.
Aligns with District-Approved Curriculum Unlike open AI tools, MagicSchool aligns to school standards—helping teachers stay on track while adapting to diverse student needs.
Boosts Teacher Capacity & Morale Reduces burnout and improves retention by lightening teacher workloads and supporting high-quality instruction in every classroom.
