HEALTHY BODIES. HEALTHY MINDS. HEALTHY LIVES.
FACT: Steroids, meth, alcohol, tobacco, hazing and poor sportsmanship havenoplaceinschools.
The Montana High School Association believes that students in activities are natural leaders. Aim Higher provides students with the tools to hone their leadership and their mentoring skills by creating a positive educational environment in the classroom, in activities and in life.
Aim Higher’s program components focus on drugs, alcohol, tobacco and hazing to help educate students on the hazards of exhibiting negative behaviors as individuals and as members of the school community.
Learn more. Take part. Aim Higher.
High school activities not only help Montana youth grow into leaders and develop accountability, responsibility, and healthy habits, but they also build threads in the fabric of communities throughout Big Sky Country — from our smallest towns to our largest cities.
We proudly partner with the Montana High School Association to enrich the lives of Montana youth and strengthen our state’s future.

Keeping watch over our wildlife and reliability.
Every day across Montana, our team members are balancing the need to provide reliable energy and protect the environment. Luckily, we have dedicated programs to help support these efforts and incredible partnerships within our communities that allow us to accomplish so much more than we could on our own. Our Osprey Project is just one example of how local resource agencies, volunteers and our on-staff biologist can improve service reliability while delivering a bright future to some of this state’s most beloved wildlife.
