By this message I am encouraging everyone who cares about the future of public education in America and right here in Montana to contact Senators Jon Tester and Steve Daines and urge them to oppose, to vote NO, on the confirmation of Betsy Devos.
 
​For plenty about Betsy go here - https://www.google.com/#q=betsy+devos
 
And for a discouraging related Montana story go here - http://bit.ly/2iQZplD
 
See contact points for Senators Tester and Daines immediately below.  Each should at least know what we don't like.
 





Update: Senator Tester has stated his vote will be NO. Thank you Senator Tester (e-mail him and thank him)!

       The corona virus has definitely created a novel reality.  If you check our our website, you will find links to resources for remote learning, and, of course, there is a plethora of information on the website  FaceBook has  great interest groups, too.  

    Youth Art Month

       We have the virtual platform ready for you to upload images for the 2021 Virtual Youth Art Exhibition. 
       Please follow the link to the 2021 MAEA Virtual Youth Art Month Exhibit HERE.  It is in a Google Slide format. 
       We ask that everyone participate, but only upload 2-3 works per specialist. 
       There are a few slides at the beginning giving format guidance. Please inquire if you have questions. The closer you adhere to the requested format the easier it will be for YAM Chair Victor Daniel of Helena and I to prepare for presentation. 
       The deadline for uploading will be next Wednesday, March 3, 2021. 
       After that deadline, Victor and I will refine the presentation, convert it to a movie file, and upload it to YouTube. 
       We will post the virtual show on the MAEA website and send out a link via email so you can use it on your school and district websites, for promotion in local businesses and board meetings or anywhere there is a screen connected to the internet. 
       If you need it in another format, just let us know. We will be happy to share it as a slide presentation as well.
