You can also opt IN to the school’s messaging system to receive surveys and other important school information by calling our front office (406) 547-3751. There will be another community survey after the first of the year to determine the sustainability of the 4 Day School Week.

Our ACT scores for the graduating class of 2025 is 21.3 and the state average is 19.4.
