Montana Principals Conference 2026

This January, the heart of Montana education beats in Bozeman. The Montana Principals' Conference is more than a meeting --- it's a homecoming for leaders who shape the next generation of Big Sky thinkers, dreamers, and doers. Under the banner 'Solid Country Gold: Where Montana's Educators Raise Up Tomorrow's Frontier,' this year's conference tips its hat to the people, purpose, and promise behind every Montana school. Attendees will gain strategies, inspiration, connection, and renewed drive to lead with heart and vision. The conference features high-caliber keynotes from state and national education leaders, including Dr. Charles Fay (Love and Logic Institute), John Sommers-Flanagan (on leading with clarity and calm), Kristen Booth (on instructional leadership, student engagement, and navigating student conflict), and Brooklyn Trover (on using student data). Expect hands-on breakout sessions designed for real-world impact and meaningful collaboration with principals from across Montana, aiming to strengthen leadership and deepen professional connections. The event offers networking with hundreds of principals and educational leaders, opportunities to discover innovative practices, and a chance to recharge purpose. Join us January 25--27, 2026, in Bozeman, Montana.
