OpenAI is scaling its ChatGPT for Teachers program to 55 U.S. school systems, extending AI access to over 100,000 additional educators and support staff. The program provides schools with secure, purpose-built AI tools designed for classroom use, along with training and technical support. This expansion reflects growing adoption of AI in K-12 education and OpenAI's strategy to embed its platform into institutional workflows early.
