Attention Middle School and High School Educators:
You're invited to attend the OPI MTSS High School Forum in Great Falls on November 15, 2022! Attendees engaged in this no-cost forum will learn about MTSS tools and resources to enhance the implementation framework and strengthen school climate to provide all students with the best opportunities to maximize achievement, both academically and behaviorally. Please consider bringing a team of five from your school district, including your building principal. This event complements the great professional learning that occurred at this year's OPI Summer Institute.
To learn more about the event and OPI reimbursement for travel to the Forum, you can check out the High School Forum Letter of Invitation and register your team using the link below before November 5, 2022.
The complete HS Forum agenda will be added to our Upcoming Events tab on the OPI MTSS Website soon.
