"Did You Know"...Telling Your Story of Personalized Learning and Innovations

"Did You Know"...Telling Your Story of Personalized Learning and Innovations is a Montana Public Education Center statewide effort to collect information about our public schools.  We know that the value our schools bring to local communities enrich the lives of not only our students, but our communities and entire state.  Statistical information about student performance, and financial information about our schools, tells only a part of the story, and our ability to "Tell Our Story" is so important in providing a deeper, more meaningful look at the value of our public schools.  So, join this effort to describe the many ways our schools are making a difference in our communities for our children.

The information collected can then be used by all of us to "Tell Our Story" to audiences that want to know more about the value of our schools.  The stories will be collected and made easily accessible, electronically, for you to share with others.

If you have a personalized learning and/or innovative program, project, activity or event that you want to share with others, please take a moment to complete and submit this electronic DID YOU KNOW form.  If there are materials you would like included (e.g., documents, photos, video), you will have the ability to upload them below.  You can submit this form multiple times for programs/projects in the Categories described in this form.  Please do not submit personally identifiable student information and obtain FERPA compliant permissions for any photo or video with students present.

Thanks for sharing!
