A JCPS middle school issued AI agendas with false U.S. maps

On the first day at Farnsley's, a student asked his mother whether their family lived in Vaneky.

In a video posted Aug. 18, 2026, penguinz0 took up Jefferson County Public Schools after Farnsley's Middle School handed out new student agendas packed with AI-generated mistakes. Stacey Morris's son came home from the first day eager to share what he had learned. He asked, "Mom, did you know that we live in Vaneky?"

Morris answered, "What are you talking about?" and flipped through the book. A U.S. map inside renamed Kentucky Kanveky, Indiana Inolana, and Tennessee Tunaseo. The periodic table carried jarbled element names, moon phases used mangled spellings, and one page listed planets including one called Mark. Louisiana read Lu Kong, Alabama Al Atome, Illinois Vit Oise, South Carolina Sorth Quanto, and Arizona Arizone.

The errors undercut Morris's trust in Farnsley's and the wider district. She wanted to know whether other JCPS campuses received the same edition or whether parents elsewhere had spotted the flaws. penguinz0 pressed the district for the vendor behind the books and for a list of schools that got the print run. Officials had not replied by the time he uploaded the segment.

He tied the agendas to a wider flood of AI slop online and argued that classrooms should remain a haven for verified facts. He ended the segment there and signed off without a district statement.
