AI that gives teachers their time back.

Funding tip: many schools pay for teacher training with federal Title II-A professional development funds, and for classroom technology with Title IV-A funds. Ask your federal programs coordinator, and we're happy to help with the paperwork.

About the founder

Built by an educator, for educators.

Bayou Teach was founded by Casey Jones, an educator in Hammond, Louisiana who has taught young adults in a federally funded workforce development program since 2016, preparing them for the HiSET, college and careers.

After building AI tools that cut hours of paperwork for a workforce program team, Casey started Bayou Teach to bring the same results to every classroom. Casey is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran and is completing an MBA at UMass Boston.

Questions

Good to know

Do teachers need to know anything about AI first?

No. Workshops start from zero and move at the group's pace. Teachers who already use AI pick up new ways to save time.

Is it safe for student privacy?

Yes. The tools are designed so teachers never need to enter student names or personal information, and every workshop covers what not to share with AI.

Does it replace teachers' work?

No. AI makes a first draft. Teachers review it, change it and make the final call. The goal is less time on paperwork and more time with students.

Can you train our whole district?

Yes. Workshops can be run for a single department, one school or several schools at once. Reach out and we'll put together a plan and quote.

How do schools usually pay for this?

Many schools use federal Title II-A funds for professional development and Title IV-A funds for technology. We can invoice your school or district directly and help with the documentation your federal programs office needs.

Will you sign our data privacy agreement?

Yes. We're glad to review and sign your district's student data privacy agreement. See our Privacy and Data page for how we handle information.

Do you work outside of schools?

Yes. Bayou Teach also builds custom AI tools for workforce development, adult education and nonprofit programs.
