ABOUT CONSYLIUM
J. Thomas Woelper
Head of School
Cheshire Academy
“At Cheshire Academy, we recognize that AI isn't coming to education — it's already here. That's why we've partnered with CONSYLIUM to ensure we're on our front foot in this transformative moment. What excites me most about this collaboration is working with advisors who are actual educators facing the same challenges we are. They understand the classroom realities, the institutional complexities, and most importantly, our responsibility to students. Together, we're building an AI strategy that's both innovative and grounded in our educational mission — one that empowers our faculty, engages our students responsibly, and positions Cheshire as a thoughtful leader in this new era.”
