00:19:49	Martha R. Potter:	Is Montana coming out with a similar document as to the  MA?
00:23:19	Lance Melton:	The state will not be doing so.  The closest you will find is the MT-PEC guidance that is being discussed right now.
00:24:37	Lance Melton:	If your hand is up from the original question regarding whether you were in session 1, please lower your hand so that we know those who are raising their hand only because they have a current question.
00:35:09	School Administrators of Montana:	Please upload the link to your approved school reopening plan into the chat.  We will organize this and upload it to this session's webpage for future use.

00:43:58	Linda Marsh:	If we make a plan that reduces the hours of instruction, how do we show evidence of proficiency?
00:48:14	Mike Perry:	I'm very worried that we won't get any subs at all.
00:49:47	Joe Steele:	We can't find subs, so are looking to hire a home-teacher liaison to help gather and print material that might be going home and then working with the families who have chosen remote learning..
00:51:30	Dennis Parman:	MCS - https://mrea-mt.org/montana-cooperative-services/about-mcs/
00:54:43	School Administrators of Montana:	2-18-101 Short Term Worker definition
01:01:16	Nicole Hanson:	In terms of 90 days....I need clarification. Does the law state calendar days, workdays or hours for short terms workers? 
01:03:14	Lance Melton:	90 work days
01:05:21	School Administrators of Montana:	Linda Marsh.  The definition of proficiency adopted by the school does not require hours of instruction, and so if you are awarding credit based on proficiency, you don't have to account for reduced hours.  
01:05:54	Rhonda Horner:	Do you forsee a spectatorless fall sport season?
01:06:29	Rob Pedersen:	MHSA said that is up to local districts and county health departments
01:08:50	Lance Melton:	Correct. No seat time required for proficiency.  Proficiency is in the discretion of the district using district assessments.  As simple as a passing grade, promotion, graduation, etc.
01:09:28	Alex Ator:	Thank you
