This summer, School Administrators of Montana invites you to step out of the daily grind and into something bigger.
ElevateMT School Leadership Summit is not just the same SAMAI conference you're used to attending. It’s the statewide gathering of leaders shaping Montana’s schools, coming together to recharge, learn, and elevate what’s possible.
We’re thrilled to welcome Principal Baruti Kafele, Garth Larson, Sarah Elkins, Dr. Lisa Drake, and Kee Dunning.
These are some of the most respected voices in education today. Their messages are powerful, practical, and deeply motivating for anyone leading in today’s school environment.
