The Montana Legislature has funded Gifted and Talented Grants to schools each biennial through a match grant managed by OPI through the E-grants system. An important step to ensure your school doesn't miss out on an opportunity for these funds for 2023-2025 is to complete the Gifted and Talented Intent to Apply with your district's planned match amount for the upcoming two school years. The "Intent to Apply" should be available in E-grants in early March, and is due May 1, 2023.
