Allison Nys

Allison Nys grew up in Montana and has spent her entire educational career in Montana. Allison taught for 16 years in a rural school (on average 60 students K-6), which happened to be the same rural school she attended as a child. (photo in header) She has another 11 years in administration as a principal in a larger school district and curriculum director. She holds degrees in Art (K-12 teaching), K-8 Teaching and Educational Leadership along with a Superintendent Licensure.

Allison is heavily involved with rural education and has been an active member of the National Rural Education Association since 2006, after winning the Montana Rural Teacher of the year.  She has sat on the Executive Board since 2010 and was the President of the association twice (2016 & 2022).

A main goal of Allison's is to provide mentoring, coaching and professional development to any educator who has a growth mindset or district/school wanting to improve learning and culture! Allison spends much of her time working in rural schools, however, can tailor work to any school or district.
