Case Study: The Kinkaid School expands equitable AI access and teacher visibility with Flint

How The Kinkaid School’s long standing interest in AI has led them to partner with Flint

The Kinkaid School, a premier PK-12 independent school in Houston, faced the challenge of integrating generative AI into its curriculum equitably and safely. Director of Technology Vinnie Vrotny sought a cost-effective platform that would provide all faculty, staff, and students with access to powerful AI models while giving teachers visibility into student use to allay fears and guide learning.

They partnered with Flint to implement its AI platform. Flint provided a secure environment with the necessary guardrails, enabling widespread and equitable access at an affordable price. This solution led to a dramatic increase in AI adoption, with teacher usage jumping from 33% to 90% in six months. Educators across various departments created Flint activities for tasks ranging from science lab reports to historical interviews, resulting in highly engaged students and noticeable improvements in test performance.
