Over the past fifteen years Jennifer has worked with every tribe in Montana on culturally relevant materials and tribally specific resources for implementation across all disciplines in K-12 public education. She is currently working on K-12 science implementation strategies that are aligned with the MT Science Content Standards, integrating TEK and SEK. Prior to joining the OPI, Jennifer was a K-12 science and Indian Education for All Instructional Coach for Bozeman Public Schools and in 2016 she published her Master of Science in Science Education thesis on her landscape level research on long-billed curlews and sandhill cranes at Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge.
