The Struggling Student

You're a teacher at a high school and you discover that one of your students has turned in an essay generated by AI. This student is usually a hard worker, but she has recently told you that she is struggling with her mental health. Your school’s code of conduct expects all cases of plagiarism to be reported to the principal and given a grade of zero. What do you do?

Follow the procedure and report your student.
Let the student off with a warning.
