April 2020
As we continue adapting education in our state to a distance learning model, we are modifying and rescheduling training and events to get you what you need.

Below you'll find updates on how we're addressing needs to wrap up 19-20 training, options for what is available for you now, and what we're planning down the road.
NDMTSS trainings/events Wrap Ups
Developing Academic Pathways - Bismarck Day 3 + Site Visits
Bismarck's Day 3 will be held online on April 20-21 (tentatively 1-4pm) and teams will receive email clarification from Cheryl Hoggarth.

If unable to connect online during the scheduled session, a follow-up recording will be made available.
Site Visits - We will be scheduling virtual site visits for all Teams. Please watch for an email with a SignUp Genius link to reserve your team time with Wayne Callender.
Developing Schoolwide Expectations
Emails with resources on virtual PBIS and Coaching Call opportunities have been sent out. If participating teams are interested in SWIS, please reach out to Courtney.Seiler@k12.nd.us!
Barrier Busting

Rescheduling at the earliest of late summer/early fall.
NDMTSS Conference
The June 8-10, 2020 NDMTSS Conference has been cancelled. We are sad to be missing all of you at what would have been the 10th NDMTSS Conference.

We don't want to put anyone at risk and with all the changes currently happening, it doesn't seem like a smart decision to bring 400+ educators and out-of-state presenters together.

We are looking at other options and ideas in replace of the conference and will connect with you on them at a later date!
ND SEL Network - June 10
At this time the June 10 SEL Network Semi-Annual Summit is still ON.

The format options are still being considered and will be communicated to those districts involved once decided.
