Centering On Students: PCBL In Action from Modern Classrooms In Utah
Wednesday July 9, 2025 1:30pm - 2:30pm MDT

Navigating the Landscape of School Mental Health: A Comprehensive Systems Approach
Wednesday July 9, 2025 1:30pm - 3:50pm MDT
Room #145
The Utah School Mental Health Collaborative (USMHC) Model is a statewide initiative designed to enhance school-based mental health systems through evidence-based practices, technical assistance, training, and community partnerships. This session will provide a comprehensive overview of the USMHC framework, guiding participants through the process of implementing a multi-tiered system of support (MTSS) for student mental health.

Attendees will be taken on a journey to explore the three-tiered approach of the USMHC Model, beginning with Tier 1, which focuses on school-wide mental health promotion, faculty engagement, and the integration of prevention initiatives. The session will highlight data-driven decision-making using tools like SWTRS and SSWQ, discuss universal screening practices in alignment with Utah laws and USBE-approved screeners (e.g., PHQ, GAD), and examine sustainable funding strategies.

The discussion will then shift to Tier 2, emphasizing targeted interventions for students at increased risk, and Tier 3, which provides intensive individualized support and refined referral processes. Presenters will also address strategies to assist students whose needs extend beyond Tier 3 services.

A key feature of this session is demonstrating how districts and schools can use the SHAPE Assessment to evaluate the strengths and areas for improvement within their comprehensive school mental health system. Presenters will explore how SHAPE results can inform long-term mental health improvement efforts and strategic planning, ensuring sustainable and data-driven enhancements to school mental health infrastructure. Participants will leave with practical tools and strategies for implementing a sustainable, evidence-based school mental health system and learn how the USMHC can support their efforts in advancing student and educator well-being.

Six Leadership Moves for High-Impact Professional Learning Systems
Wednesday July 9, 2025 1:30pm - 3:50pm MDT
Room #141
How can school and district leaders design professional learning systems that actually improve teaching and learning? In this interactive session, the UEPC - Utah Education Policy Center at the University of Utah will share a research-informed framework for building coherent and aligned professional learning systems that result in improved student outcomes. Participants will explore six high-leverage leadership moves that shift professional learning from fragmented activities to intentional systems with lasting impact.

Participants will:
• Learn key research-based strategies to align and strengthen professional learning systems
• Explore six leadership moves—what they are, why they matter, and how they show up in practice
• Engage in interactive activities and structured tools designed to deepen understanding and immediate application
• Use a self-assessment to reflect on current systems and identify opportunities for greater alignment and coherence
• Draft a concrete action plan to bring this learning back to their schools or districts

Why This Matters:
When time and resources are limited, making every minute of professional learning count is essential. Yet too often, professional learning lacks the coherence needed to change practice and improve outcomes. This session equips leaders with practical tools and a roadmap to strengthen the systems behind the learning—so that every professional learning investment translates into better instruction, deeper teacher engagement, and stronger results for students.

From Potential to Proficiency: Driving Systemic Change
Wednesday July 9, 2025 2:50pm - 3:50pm MDT
Room #244
Leadership can be lonely - especially when leading systemic change. Join fellow leaders to consider why change is hard and how to channel your energy as you lead necessary shifts with instruction and innovation.

Transforming student learning outcomes requires more than just great programs—it demands systemic change driven by evidence-based practices, strategic leadership, and the effective use of digital resources. In this interactive session, we will consider how to leverage the Pareto Principle (80/20 rule) to help district and school leaders focus on the high-impact 20% of efforts that drive 80% of results in technology adoption, instructional implementation, and leadership decision-making.

We will also consider Knoster's Model for Managing Complex Change as a helpful framework for identifying areas of focus that allow research-backed initiatives to take root and thrive in your school or district.

Reaching Every Student: How Utah is Using Early Warning Systems to Support Student Success
Wednesday July 9, 2025 2:50pm - 3:50pm MDT
Room #134
In an era where personalized support is more critical than ever, Utah is leading the way in using data-driven tools to reach and teach every student. This session will explore the state’s implementation of Panorama Student Success as a statewide Early Warning System (EWS), designed to proactively identify students who may be at risk of falling off track and ensure timely, targeted interventions.
Schools and districts across the state are using Panorama Student Success to monitor key indicators such as attendance, behavior, and coursework in one centralized platform. This system empowers educators with real-time, actionable insights to support students.
Attendees will learn how Panorama Student Success aligns with Utah’s broader vision for supporting a positive and safe school culture, and hear examples of how educators are using this tool to build intervention plans, collaborate across teams, and ensure no student falls through the cracks. We’ll also highlight the importance of cross-district collaboration and state leadership in scaling an EWS that serves student populations statewide.
Whether you’re exploring how to strengthen your own student support systems or looking to build a similar initiative, this session will offer practical takeaways, lessons learned, and inspiration from Utah’s ongoing journey to reach every student, every day.

This session will provide school staff with the knowledge, tools, and strategies needed to recognize the signs of suicidal ideation in students, offer immediate support, and respond effectively in crisis situations. Suicide prevention is a shared responsibility, and educators are often the first to notice signs of distress in students. By equipping staff with the proper training and resources, we can ensure that all students receive the support they need to navigate their challenges and find hope in difficult times. Utah requires all licensed educators to have regular suicide prevention training. This session will meet that requirement.
