Welcome to the start of the '26-'27 school year! I'm excited to share an upcoming free professional development opportunity for Mountainland Region counselors and advisors and would love for you to share it out.
Career Alignment Foundations: The Science of Self-Discovery
On September 29 at 9:00 a.m. MST, we'll be joined by Miriam Groom, Organizational Therapist and Founder & CEO of Mindful Career, for a virtual session focused on helping students understand themselves, find relevance, and stay engaged in career exploration.
Miriam brings a neuroscience-informed approach to career alignment, and she'll be sharing exceptional, practical insight into how counselors can help students uncover their strengths, cognitive preferences, and motivation patterns before they make academic or career pathway decisions. Her work equipping counselors with structured, developmentally appropriate discovery tools has made a real difference in student engagement and long-term alignment at school systems and universities across North America. This is a rare chance to learn directly from someone doing such meaningful work in this space, and I think you'll walk away with tools you can put into practice right away.
Event Details:
Date: September 29
Time: 9:00 a.m. MST
Format: Virtual (Zoom link emailed one week prior) · Free
Credit: 1 point re-licensure credit (available in Altitude for USBE employees)
Website: Mountainland Region Pathways | Utah Valley University

Good morning,
The following information is to help your school counseling team know what to expect for their upcoming formal school counseling program review. Please pass on the following information to others in your charter who will be attending the formal review:
Dear School Counselor(s),
I wanted to touch base regarding your upcoming formal school counseling program reviews scheduled for October 9, 2026. I will be the USBE Specialist leading the reviews.
Date | School | Time |
10/09/26
| Davinci Academy
| 9:00 am
|
**Electronic Working Files due September 9, 2026 **
At the beginning of the review, the principal/director will be asked to “paint the picture” of the school (5-10 minutes). This will help me understand the uniqueness of your school, school goals, and how the school counselors support the overall mission of the school. We ask that your principal/director be in attendance for the entire review.
This will lead into a discussion regarding the components, indicators, and evidence. You should plan for the review process to take about 1 ½ -2 hours. However, times may vary, shorter or longer, depending on the documentation provided prior to the review.
For the required electronic working files documents, please create one folder that is titled: “USBE Required Documentation”. These documents are the only documents that should be in the folder:
To submit your electronic working files, please share the link to your Google Drive or online platform with me by September 9, 2026, at bethany.marker@schools.utah.
I am looking forward to getting to know your team and program better. If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thanks!

Use this as a recruiting incentive for your clubs early on for the next school year. This is the perfect opportunity to get your students excited about business and to practice their competition skills against the top local high school marketing students from around the state. It’s a great field day out on UVU campus with a catered lunch provided.
You are again invited to join UVU’s Marketing Department and our competition sponsors in a celebration of the study of business and marketing with a day of fun marketing competitions designed for high school business students.
· Who: High school FBLA students, high school students taking business classes, or any students interested in studying business are invited.

We know this date falls during Jordan School District's fall break. As we evaluated options, we took into account school district calendars, USU space availability, and several other logistical factors, and October 20 was the date that worked best overall.
We'll be finalizing details over the summer and will keep you both informed as plans come together. In the meantime, would you be willing to send a Save the Date to your advisors so they can get it on their fall calendars?
Thank you for your continued partnership. We're looking forward to another great event!

Dear Friends,
On behalf of Salt Lake Community College and the school districts of the Wasatch Front South Region, I would like to invite you to participate in an expanded advisory opportunity. As many of you are aware, Salt Lake Community College and several of the school districts along the Wasatch Front have been operating independent of one another when it comes to seeking advisory input from local construction trades partners. This practice has resulted in many of you sitting on multiple advisory boards in your efforts to support the local education programs. As education partners, we have determined this to be an unnecessary duplication of efforts and would like to remedy the situation in honor of the time being requested from our industry partners. Effective immediately, there will be a single construction trades advisory committee to serve the educational needs of the entire Wasatch Front South Region. These advisory meetings will be held at the Association of General Contractors (AGC) headquarters, located at 2207 South 1070 West Salt Lake City, Utah, and will be chaired by Joey Gilbert. The first meeting is scheduled to take place January 21st from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., and we would love to have your participation. Subsequent meetings are being planned for September 9, 2026, January 13, 2027, and April 21, 2027. Please save these dates on your calendar and plan to join us. If there are other members of the construction trades community who may be interested in participating with this committee, please feel free to share this invitation. If you have any questions or need further information, please feel free to contact me at the numbers listed below. I look to seeing you on January 21st.

I, along with Travis Cook, will be hosting a Charter School Counseling Interim Review Summit for all charter schools with approved programs undergoing an Interim review this year. You and your school counseling team are invited to attend. Please note that administrators are not required or expected to attend. This summit will cover your Interim Review requirement. You will need to bring your latest program review self-evaluation and your principal/school counselor agreement.

(If you have other school counselors on your team, and they aren’t on this email, please forward this to them).
Please RSVP so that I can get a head count.
Thanks!
