FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
2019 ACT Composite Results Remain Unchanged from 2018; Slight Increases in Math and English Language Arts Proficiency
September 13, 2019
HELENA—The Office of Public Instruction announced Montana’s 2019 ACT results today. The overall state composite score in 2019 was 19.6, the same as in 2018 and down from 2017 and 2016 composites of 19.7 and 20.0 respectively. The ACT is Montana’s statewide assessment for high school students for federal reporting purposes and an important tool for assessing college readiness. In the math category, 34% of students were proficient compared to 32% last year. In the English language arts combined categories, 46% of students were proficient compared to 44% last year.
“These ACT results show that Montana has work to do in preparing our students for success in college and careers, especially in the critical areas of math and English language arts,” State Superintendent Elsie Arntzen said Friday. “While one test is not an indicator of a student’s full potential and not all students need to go to college to find a career, Montana must prepare the next generation for success after they graduate high school.
This year, 9,570 juniors took the ACT which represents about 95% participation statewide. The test measures proficiency in English, reading, writing, math, and science. The bellow chart shows the percentage of students who are college ready in each category. The Montana University System requires a composite score of 22 as one of the admissions criteria of its four-year campuses.
As part of Montana’s federal accountability system, the OPI included the ACT as a college or career readiness indicator alongside Advanced Placement, dual enrollment, and CTE concentration, among others.
The ACT is funded by the Office of the Commissioner of High Education through a federal Gear Up grant and is administered by ACT Inc. and the Office of Public Instruction.
*A detailed 2019 ACT report along with state and local results can be found at this link: https://gems.opi.mt.gov/StudentAchievement/Pages/ACTDashboard.aspx
*State and local SBAC results for elementary and middle schools will be available in the coming weeks.

2019 State Test Scores Show Little Change in Math and English Proficiency from Last Year for Elementary and Middle School Students
October 4, 2019
HELENA— The Office of Public Instruction has released Montana’s 2018-2019 school year statewide assessment results for elementary and middle school students. The Smarter Balanced Assessment is used to show proficiency in math and English language arts (ELA) for students in grades 3 through 8. The most recent results showed little variation in either category.
For grades 3 through 5, the proficiency rates are 49.8% in ELA and 44.7% in math. That is down from 50.5% proficiency in ELA and up from 44.4% proficiency in math in 2018. For grades 6 through 8, the proficiency rates are 50.3% in ELA and 39.0% in math. That is up from 50.1% proficiency in ELA and 38.5% proficiency in math in 2018. Participation rates by grade are around 98%.
“The Office of Public Instruction is committed to working with schools to move the needle on student achievement,” State Superintendent Elsie Arntzen said Friday. “While one test does not represent a student’s full potential, these results do show where we can start supporting improvement. State assessments in combination with local measurements provide data for teachers to support individualized student success.”
Montana is beginning its second year of Comprehensive and Targeted Support and Improvement efforts under the federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). The OPI is assisting schools and districts which have high percentages of underperforming students in certain categories such as American Indian, Hispanic, economically disadvantaged, and special education students. Students in these categories have historically performed below the all- student average.
The OPI is committed to working with school teams to create school improvement plans which ensure that all Montana students have the opportunity to succeed. You can learn more about these efforts on the OPI’s website.
Complete state and local assessment results can be found on OPI’s GEMS data website. ACT results for high school students were released last month. ACT information can be found here.

October 18, 2019 Student Achievement: Targeted Support and Improvement under ESSA
Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) Fundamental Pillars • Sets two broad goals: Establish standards aligned to College and Career expectations and maintains and expands the federal focus on equity. • ESSA returns authority toward state and local districts, where states identify lowest performing schools and develop and approve improvement plans. • ESSA sets expectations for state and local strategies: o Aligned to College and Career standards and equity goals o Evidence-based o Developed through stake-holder engagement
ESSA Equity Focus: Student Achievement • Most of the students who are not on track to meet state standards for post-high school success do not necessarily attend the bottom 5% of schools in the state. • ESSA equity focus: Are all Montana schools giving their American Indian students, Hispanic students, Economically Disadvantaged students, students with disabilities and English learners the opportunities to develop critical academic skills they need for success in college and career? • The improvement system is designed to support school-wide improvements (Comprehensive) and improvement in schools that are underperforming for specific student groups (Targeted).

Bringing Accountability and School Improvement Together to Drive Change for All Students Requirement: ESSA requires states to annually identify any public school with one or more “consistently underperforming” student groups for Targeted Support and Improvement (TSI).The goal is to encourage the state, LEAs, and schools to focus more attention on underserved populations and meet education goals for each student. See ESSA Section 1111(d)(2)): https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/BILLS- 114s1177enr/pdf/BILLS-114s1177enr.pdf
Identification Criteria: The OPI identifies a school for Targeted Support and Improvement each year if the school has any student group performing in the lowest 5% of all Montana schools. The OPI will identify targeted schools for comprehensive support and improvement if these schools have not increased the performance of all student subgroups to exceed the level of performance of the lowest performing 5 percent of Title I schools overall after three years of additional targeted support. These schools will first be identified for comprehensive support and improvement beginning with school year 2021-2022.
LEA Responsibility: Each LEA in partnership with stakeholders, including principals and other school leaders, teachers and parents, is required to develop and implement a Continuous School Improvement Plan to improve student outcomes based on the indicators in the statewide accountability system for each student group identified for underperformance. LEAs are responsible for TSI notification, implementation, and monitoring.
OPI Supports for TSI schools: • Facilitation of Data Talks to support gap analysis of the Comprehensive Needs Assessment and state assessment data; • Support with developing the Continuous School Improvement Plan, which includes clear measurable goals focused on subgroups; • Systemic literacy and math improvements through regional trainings; • Professional development for teachers through the Montana Learning Hub focused on the identified subgroups; and • Ongoing support through OPI-sponsored conferences and website resources.
Targeted Formula Grant Opportunity: TSI districts/schools have the opportunity to write a rigorous application for formula grant funding aligned with the requirements of the law to address the identified needs for each subgroup of underperformance. The application must: • Be informed by a gap-analysis; • Include interventions and practices that are supported by moderate and strong evidence; • Be developed with stakeholder involvement; and • Use the Continuous Improvement Cycle to: o Monitor the effectiveness of the program o Make data-based decisions and increase assessment results o Ensure disadvantaged students are served as identified in the Gap Analysis
October 18, 2019 ESSA Proposed Amendments
Proposed Amendments: Montana is in the second school year implementing the State Plan under ESSA, which was developed with stake-holder involvement and received federal approval in January 2018. Now that we have had the opportunity to see the plan in action, it is time to add and adjust components to make the plan stronger. Thus, the OPI is currently seeking input on two (2) proposed amendments to the Montana State Plan under ESSA.
Proposed red-lined amendments to the Montana State Plan are posted for public comment at the below links. The public is invited to provide comments via email at [email protected]. Comments will be accepted until November 18th. Also, a feedback and input discussion with Education Advocates is scheduled for November 18th and a Q & A Conference Call for November 19th. Please see the timeline below for details about the amendment process.
The two (2) proposed amendments to the Montana ESSA plan include:
1. Updating the proficiency and exit criteria for English Learners as measured by the WIDA ACCESS for ELLs 2.0 Assessment and adding exit criteria for the WIDA Alternate Assessment. Purpose: To update English Learner proficiency and exit criteria to align with more rigorous academic English language proficiency expectations recommended by WIDA in 2016.
Process: In August 2019, the OPI convened stakeholders to review the exit criteria for Montana ELs. The OPI selected participants from a diverse group of Montana stakeholders, including (but not limited to): School administrators, school Title coordinators (e.g., Title III), English learner specialists, Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) teachers, cultural experts (i.e., persons with heritage language expertise with immigrant, indigenous and colony students), community, and parents. The purpose of the OPI WIDA Standard Validation Workshop was to establish meaningful proficiency criteria for Montana’s ELs and meet the federal statutory requirement for assessments used in the statewide accountability system and Peer Review as mandated by the U.S. Department of Education (USDOE).
2. Amending the allocation process of Title IVA, Part A, funding to follow the revised federal funding formula for Title 1 districts. Purpose: To update the allocation process for awarding subgrants under Title IV, Part A, funding now that Montana is funded at a level that allows the distribution of a minimum of $10,000.
Timeline: . October 8- Introductory discussion with Education Advocates . October 17- ESSA Update and posting of the red lined amendments for public comment period on the OPI website-also an email was sent to the ESSA stakeholder list . November 7- Presentation to the Board of Public Education . November 12- Consultation with the Governor’s office .

Report to the Board of Public Education November 2019
Prepared by Scott Furois, Operations Research Analyst Danielle Murphy, School Staffing Project Manager Ken Bailey, Chief Financial Officer Montana Office of Public Instruction
Background
Section 20-4-503, MCA directs the Board of Public Education, in consultation with the Office of Public Instruction, to:
(a) maintain and make publicly available a current list of impacted schools; and (b) based on reporting by impacted schools or school districts in which impacted schools are located, identify within each impacted school, critical quality educator shortage areas under 20-4-502(1)(a).
A quality educator is defined as a full-time equivalent educator who holds a valid educator license or is a licensed professional providing services to students in a public school district, an education cooperative, the Montana School for the Deaf and Blind, the Montana Youth Challenge Program, or a state youth correctional facility.1
The Board of Regents administered the Quality Educator Loan Assistance Program through the Office of the Commissioner of Higher Education from FY 2008 through FY 2017. The program provided direct repayment assistance for the educational loans of eligible quality educators for up to four years. The total annual loan repayment assistance could not exceed $3,000 per educator. The number of recipients and the amount paid on their behalf were:
Year # of Recipients $ Awarded FY08 104 $307,280 FY09 116 $336,366 FY10 163 $471,754 FY11 143 $418,023 FY12 167 $495,924 FY13 191 $527,761 FY14 207 $597,966 FY15 172 $494,794 FY16 172 $499,066 FY17 157 $457,935
The 2017 Montana Legislature did not fund the Quality Educator Loan Assistance Program for fiscal years 2018 and 2019. However, HB 211 passed by the 2019 legislature reestablished funding in the amount of $500,000 per year and substantially changed the program in several ways.
The amount paid by the state was changed from up to $3,000 per year for four years to increasing payments of up to $3,000, $4,000, and $5,000 per year. The payments were exempted from Montana state income tax for the recipients. A fourth year payment

entirely funded by the local school district was also authorized. Though any school district could already offer this benefit, the statute made the payment exempt from Montana state income tax.
The prior program only required a quality educator to be employed at an impacted school and not necessarily in an educator shortage area. The revised statute requires quality educators to also teach or serve students in a critical shortage area specifically identified at that school.
Critical Quality Educator Shortages and Impacted Schools
The Board of Public Education is required to publish by December an annual report listing the critical quality educator shortage areas under 20-4-502(1)(a) in each impacted school. In the past the OPI used a scoring rubric to define impacted schools and shortage areas. Statute now specifically identifies the criteria for an impacted school and what constitutes a shortage.
Criteria for an Impacted School
The definition of an impacted school, 20-4-502(5), was changed by HB 211 to:
(a) a special education cooperative; (b) the Montana school for the deaf and blind, as described in 20-8-101; (c) the Montana youth challenge program, as established in 10-1-1401; (d) a state youth correctional facility, as defined in 41-5-103; (e) a public school located on an Indian reservation; and (f) a public school that, driving at a reasonable speed for the road surface, is located more than 20 minutes from a Montana city with a population greater than 15,000 based on the most recent federal decennial census.
The OPI utilized the State Library’s GIS database to calculate the drive time from each of the cities with a population greater than 15,000. As a result, 711 of 848 public schools and cooperatives in Montana meet the criteria to be an impacted school. A listing of impacted schools and a map showing these schools can be found on the OPI website.
Criteria for a Quality Educator Shortage
The definition of a critical quality educator shortage area , 20-4-502(1), was changed by HB 211 to:
(1) "Critical quality educator shortage area" means a specific licensure or endorsement area in an impacted school in which:
3
(a) in any of the 3 immediate preceding school fiscal years a position was: (i) filled through the procedures set forth in 19-20-732 (employment of retired teachers), 20-4-106(1)(e) (Class 5 provisional certificate), or 20-4-111 (emergency authorization); (ii) filled from a candidate pool of less than five qualified candidates; or (iii) advertised and remained vacant and unfilled due to a lack of qualified candidates for a period in excess of 30 days; or (b) a vacancy for the current school year was advertised for a period of at least 30 days and the district received less than five applications from qualified candidates.
Note: The italicized phrases above were added for clarity.
Methodology for Identifying Quality Educator Shortage
For each criterion listed above, the OPI used the following data sources to identify critical quality educator shortages:
Employment of Retired Teachers. In order to employ a retired teacher and not impact the teacher’s retirement benefits, school districts must file a request with the Teachers Retirement System (TRS). TRS provided the OPI with a report of all the approved requests for the past three years.
Class 5 Provisional Certificate. OPI’s MSEIS database contains information on Montana quality educators issued a provisional certificate which includes the endorsement specified. All quality educators issued a certificate for the past three years were matched with current TEAMS data to determine which schools employ these quality educators.
Emergency Authorization. OPI’s MSEIS database contains information on Montana quality educators issued an emergency authorization which includes the endorsement specified. All quality educators issued an emergency authorization for the past three years were matched with current TEAMS data to determine which schools employ these quality educators.
Fewer Than 5 Candidates and Remained Vacant 30 days. The OPI collects information on the difficulty schools have in recruiting quality educators in the TEAMS collection that typically is open from September through November. Prior to the TEAMS opening this year, the OPI revised the data input screen to specifically match the wording in the statute. However, the OPI believes that the wording used in the TEAMS collection for the prior two years is close enough to map those results to the new statutory definitions for this initial year.
4
Current Vacancy for 30 days and Less than Five Applicants. Recruitments conducted up until the TEAMS data collection would be captured by the immediately preceding categories. Should a vacancy occur from this point forward, the school district can apply for an immediate designation of a critical quality educator shortage area. To date, two school districts have applied for this designation for four positions. The applications were denied because the recruitments were not in the current school year.
Critical Quality Educator Shortages Listing
Table 1. Critical Quality Educator Shortages for the 2019-2020 School Year shows the shortages identified and the driver for each shortage. Only impacted schools are included in the report. There are 1,957 combinations of a school district and a shortage area contained in the report. Please note that this does not translate to 1,957 vacancies or even necessarily 1957 recruitments in rural schools. The data was gathered over recruitments from the past three years so in many cases the vacancy has been filled in some way. In some cases, a school system may be looking for a particular endorsement for a single teacher for both its elementary and middle grades and report the shortage twice in the TEAMS collection. The table represents the best data available for qualifying applicants for the quality educator loan assistance program.

TO: All Concerned Persons

2. The Board will make reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities who wish to participate in this rulemaking process or need an alternative accessible format of this notice. If you require an accommodation, contact the Board no later than 5:00 p.m. on December 6, 2019, to advise us of the nature of the accommodation that you need. Please contact Pete Donovan, Executive Director, 46 N. Last Chance Gulch, Suite 2B, PO Box 200601, Helena, Montana, 59620-0601; telephone (406) 444-0300; fax (406) 444-0847; or e-mail [email protected].
3. The rule as proposed to be amended provides as follows:
10.54.1010 DEADLINES FOR APPLICATIONS AND ANNUAL REPORTS (1) For applications submitted for transformational learning aid in 2019, the following deadlines apply: (a) for fiscal year 2020 annual report submission: February 3 – February 21, 2020.

REASON: The Board proposes to amend the rule to standardize the application and annual report deadlines for both aid programs. The Superintendent of Public Instruction recommended the proposed deadlines to the Board, after consultation with statewide education organizations, because the deadlines provide a reasonable
MAR Notice No. 10-54-290 -2-
time for school districts to prepare and file applications and annual reports. The deadlines provide a reasonable time for review and qualification of the applications and annual reports prior to distribution of funds. The Superintendent of Public Instruction determined that the proposed deadlines are administrative in nature and, thus, the negotiated rulemaking process was unnecessary.
4. Concerned persons may submit their data, views, or arguments concerning the proposed action in writing to: Pete Donovan, Executive Director, Board of Public Education, 46 N.

Montana Board of Public Education
Presentation Presenter: Sharyl Allen Position Title Overview: Transformational & Personalized Learning Manager Date: November 7, 2019 Topic: Transformational Learning Grant Applications – BPE Qualification of Grants
The OPI team has fulfilled the delegated duties from the Board of Public Education to:
1. Develop an application and process 2. Collect applications on a first-come, first-served basis 3. Collect any additional information required in the application process.
The checklist application and process were developed, and communicated throughout the state in a variety of ways: face-to-face, MASS Regional Meetings, web sessions, the OPI website, emails and phone calls. The checklist was reviewed multiple times by the OPI staff and by educational advocates including SAM, MQEC, BPE Executive Director, and MFPE. Additional feedback was sought by the Bill’s chief sponsor, Wendy McKamey.
The applications were accepted on a first-come, first-served basis through digital submissions. The OPI opened the window at 7:59 a.m., for the purpose of ensuring the submission was operational and available to districts at the 8:00 a.m. hour, on October 1, 2019. As you could imagine, districts began testing the system in the 7:00 a.m., hour of the day on October 1, with several districts time stamped between 7:59:22 and 7:59:59. It reflects the anxiousness of the first-come, first-served process of qualification for funding.
Additional information required for upload was the district’s definition of proficiency as outlined in 20-9-311 (4) (d). The OPI has collected the additional information submitted by districts.
There are four supporting documents included for your review and to aid in the qualification of districts. (It is requested that these supporting documents be embargoed until the Board of Public Education has acted on qualification of districts.)
1. The priority ranking list, and application completion. It should be noted that every district uploaded some form of a definition of proficiency. Evaluation as to whether the 2
definition of proficiency met the application bullet, is not included due to the delegation of collection only.
2. Item number two , has the verification data for the priority ranking list submitted. It is the second column from the right.
3. Transformational Learning Grant Opportunity Forecast identifying funding and priority lists by fiscal year.
4. A distribution calculation provided by the OPI finance office reflecting the QEC rate and Statewide FTE. This document shows the surplus funds from distribution calculations to budgeted funds. It is this surplus that would allow funding of the five systems identified on the Forecasting document.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT
The 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) report is a continuation of the surveillance and reporting system for adolescent risk behaviors developed by the Division of Adolescent and School Health, National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion, U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The YRBS was first used in Montana in 1991. Superintendent Elsie Arntzen, and the Montana Office of Public Instruction, acknowledge the participation, support and cooperation of those persons who made the 2019 Montana Youth Risk Behavior Survey possible. Sincere appreciation is expressed to:
• the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Division of Adolescent and School Health, Surveillance Research Section, and WESTAT Technical Assistance Project;
• the cosponsors of the YRBS – Montana Board of Crime Control, Montana Department of Public Health and Human Services, Billings Area Indian Health Service, Montana Department of Transportation;
• the district superintendents, school principals, YRBS coordinators and teachers who cooperated with and supported the survey; and, most importantly,
• the Montana students who participated in the survey.
The Office of Public Instruction is committed to equal employment opportunity and nondiscriminatory access to all our programs and services. For more information or to file a complaint, contact OPI Title IX/EEO Coordinator at (406) 444-2673 or [email protected].

2019 Montana Youth Risk Behavior Survey - Page 3 Montana Office of Public Instruction, Elsie Arntzen, Superintendent Preface
Montana is proud to have completed 28 years of participation in the Youth Risk Behavior Survey. These results are valuable to educators, school boards, and communities in understanding the health risks of local students; enabling districts to design local health and physical education curriculum to address local needs. In addition, these results drive state collaboration as well as program and policy decisions. The Montana Office of Public Instruction uses these results to establish benchmarks for reducing adolescent risk behaviors and increasing pro-social behaviors, designing state priorities for health programs, and evaluating the effectiveness of many health-related programs across the health and education systems.
Because the Office of Public Instruction believes in Putting Montana Students First, the results of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey have also helped drive the Montana Every Student Succeeds Act State Plan. Sections of this plan focus on suicide prevention, school safety, and support for schools to address substance abuse and mental health topics within their own school plans. We believe in making data driven decisions, and use the Youth Risk Behavior Survey as the platform to make program and policy decisions within the agency regarding the health of Montana students.
Thank you to all the schools who continue to administer this survey, providing Montana with this critical data. We are proud to focus our health and safety programs based on what students report through this survey, and are thankful for all the school and community partners that make this project a reality.

Administration Overview Each Program began the year at full speed and there has been no stopping. The Education Program continues discussions about trauma and how trauma may have impacted our students and their families. Both DHH and VI departments continue their professional development in sensory-specific learning. The Student Life Program has already offered many “extra” activities and events for both Cottage and Day students. The Outreach Program has been busy planning enrichment weekends and professional development opportunities for staff members across the state. The Business Office keeps the school running financially and the Maintenance Program keeps our campus aesthetically pleasing and functioning properly.
COSB and APH I recently returned from Louisville, KY after attending the Council of Schools and Services for the Blind (COSB) Leadership Institute and the Annual Meeting of the American Printing House for the Blind (APH). At the Leadership Institute, I co-presented one workshop about Program Analysis. I took two programs – Summer Skills Camp/Blind Camp and the Family Learning Weekend for the Blind and performed an in- depth cost analysis and compared that cost to the impact. I worked with Nancy Niebrugge to develop a template for all costs involved. We had great discussions about the impacts of programs and how to better measure the impacts. I also presented/facilitated two sessions – one about the successful things we are doing and how we get funding for those things and the second about all the things you wish you knew when you started as Superintendent. Both sessions were well attended and most attendees participated.
Numbers At the previous meeting, Board Member Tammy Lacey asked for number trends. Please find those attached at the end of this report. The document is Program Indicators and is a two page document.
Union Items MFPE We continue the negotiations process. We have one date in October and are hoping that we reach agreements.
UFCW We had one Labor Management Committee meeting. The discussion was good. Follow up happened related to the issues that were brought up. A second meeting was scheduled.
Education Program Currently the education department has several 10-day observations happening with prospectus students. Our DHH preschool room has grown from one student to five, with two of those students being 10-day observations. Also in the DHH, we currently have an eighth grader and senior completing observations. For all four of these students, we are fairly confident we can provide an accessible education to meet their needs. We received word this week that two students who are visually impaired will be referred to our VI preschool. We are excited for those referrals. We also just completed an intense training with two students who are visually impaired from a public school. We are hoping that these students enjoyed our campus and that we will see a future referral for them.
We are still without a physical education teacher. We have hired a full-time sub for this position. The substitute and the students have been doing very well with each other and the situation is being addressed as best as possible. I am encouraging the substitute to possibly pursue her teaching credentials. We have two teachers working on their credentials in our DHH department. Our ASL teacher is currently working under a class 5 certificate as she works on her special education degree. One of our DHH/VI mixed staff members is working on special education endorsement via the OPI internship program. The rest of the Education staff positions are filled.
As a part of the Golden Triangle Curriculum Consortium, we participated in the advisory committee meeting in September. Our science teacher and curriculum director attended the science standards review here in Great Falls.
We finally have Google working at MSDB. This was a longer process than what was expected, as we are a government agency. We spent a few weeks corresponding with Google proving that we are a public school. Teachers have received training on Google Classroom. Some teachers have begun to use the program for instruction. Administration is using Google to track teacher professional development training, lesson plans, and extended contract reporting.
To help branch our services from the main campus, we have begun teaching sign language and assistive technology online. We currently have 10 students around the state taking the sign language class and the assistive technology class will begin soon with students in the Bitterroot Valley.
Our Expressions of Silence (EOS) group has already begun their concert series by playing at the DCCW banquet. MSDB students participated in several Native American activities during Native American week. The VI Department went on a field trip to a horse ranch to learn proper care for larger animals. Student Life At this time, all of the positions for the Student Life Program have been filled. Presently, Program we have one staff who has been out on FMLA and is making improvements every day. Cottage students and some of the day students enjoyed a weekend of fun over the Labor Day weekend. Students had a picnic at Black Eagle park, Great Falls Voyagers baseball game, mini-golf, swimming in our pool and had several BBQ’s on campus. It was really a nice weekend for the students. The MSDB Foundation funds these activities. Cottage students traveled home on Friday, September 20th and returned on Monday, September 23rd. This is our third year of a three-year contract with the Helena Town Car Company. So far, we have been pleased with their service and ability to work with us and our staff on the travel days. Cottage students and day students are involved in numerous after school activities held on the MSDB campus. This includes the Expressions of Silence, Cane Club, Flying Hooves, the Jogging Jokers is just now taking off, and the kids are enjoying the activities. Several of our students are involved in middle school basketball, Eagle Mount Rock Climbing and are gearing up for the Eagle Mount Sled Hockey program. Student Life staff will transport the students and remain with them during the activity. The Student Life Counselors (Lou Collins, hired in February, Erin Faulkner, hired as Counselor in August, and Cheri Luongo, who has been here for about 4 years) have been working on re-vamping the Independent Living Skills Program (ILSP). They have added some mandatory workshops to include a variety of different topics. This is really a great opportunity for our students. These individuals have an abundant amount of energy, creativity and are making a positive impact on our program. On September 25th the Student Life program hosted an open house for the education staff. The students served as tour guides and were just thrilled to share their “home away from home” with their teachers and other staff. On September 27th, students attended the ASL CAN Film Festival. Students were able to enjoy the various short films they helped script, film, and edit while in attendance at the ASL CAN Film Camp held this past summer. The students enjoyed the camp as well watching the films. On Saturday, October 5th students and staff attended a Griz game in Missoula. We had about 45 students and staff attending this event. The day was a huge day for our students and staff. Donna Schmidt and her family as well as Jim Kelly’s family hosted the annual tailgate gathering. Funding for this event comes from the GrizKidz organization and the MSDB Foundation. Students will travel home for the MEA/Teacher Convention on Wednesday, October 16th and will return on Sunday, October 20th. The Student Life Program will host three (3) formal dinners during the upcoming school year. The members of the Board of Public Education are invited to each dinner and will be sent an invitation for each dinner. The dinners will be held on; Sunday, November 17, Sunday, December 15 and Sunday, March 29. All of the dinners will start at 5:00 PM and are held in the Dining Room located between Yellowstone and Glacier Cottages. Outreach Program Consultants are out on the road and in schools and homes on a daily basis now. VI Consultants are working hard to get the Prodigi Connect 12s out to students who are in need of the low vision devices. VI Outreach is planning to host Untangling the Dots (UTD) on the MSDB Campus Oct 17-18. DHH Consultants are working hard to find interpreters for students in public schools. They are planning for Deaf Enrichment Weekend (DEW) on the MSDB Campus Oct 25-26. Several Outreach Consultants participated with the Deaf Blind Project to attend the WREIC Conference in Colorado to learn more about serving deafblind students. We will begin follow up work with the Deafblind Project to assure early intervention is supporting the duel needs of these babies. Business As of 10/2/19 we had spent 18.91% of our 2020 Budget. Last year at 10/16/18 our spending was at 25.58%. We had a couple of unplanned expenditures in our Maintenance Department. Our air compressor in our boiler room quit working, so we had to purchase a new one at the price of $3,535.71. We also had to replace the power supply to our air circulation system in the Bitterroot Building that had a replacement price of $3,227.67. We also purchased 96 new chairs and 10 new tables for our cottage and education program for $3,699. As old plastic chairs and tables start to split and create pinching and safety concerns, we decided to throw those old, unusable ones out and replace them. This was a great deal through Sam’s Club, if you do the math and divide the cost by 106 (tables & chairs) that breaks down to only $34.99 each! And they are high quality products. We also purchased two smart display panels for our classrooms. These cost $9,459. Maintenance and See second bullet point above. Facilities Architecture & Engineering has re-posted advertisements for bids for the replacement of the cottage roof project. Last spring there was only one official bid and the project was awarded to that vendor. The vendor had to withdraw his bid due to personal health reasons. We have asked to have the project actually started in the late spring or early summer in 2020 to make sure the asphalt shingles have time to heat seal in the warm summer months. On October 9th there will be a pre-bid walkthrough on MSDB’s campus for vendors interested in placing a bid on the project. Montana experienced a big snowstorm on September 29th and the city of Great Falls had many trees damaged by the volume and weight of the snow. Across our campus we have several large trees and our damage was minimal. Some branches fell, but not too many, and there was only one big one that fell in our playground area. It didn’t cause any damage. We do see some loose smaller branches up high in some of our trees and we are on a waiting list with a couple of tree services to come pull those down. As you can imagine the tree services are very busy at this time. Foundation The MSDB Foundation is purchasing a new Embosser for the VI department. The current one has broken down and needed to be replaced since it was 20 years old. The cost for the new embosser is $4,495. The Foundation is also purchasing 14 new computers for the school at a cost of $10,000.
