There are a variety of school choice options available for many of the 225,000 children living in Montana. Families in Montana can choose from traditional public schools, public magnet schools, private schools, and homeschooling.
If you’re a parent looking for school choice options for your child head to our Montana State Guide.
National School Choice Week (NSCW) informs, inspires, and empowers parents to discover the K-12 education options available for their children, including traditional public, charter, magnet, online, private, and home schooling.
Every January, tens of thousands of schools, organizations, and individuals plan unique events and activities to shine a positive spotlight on effective education options in their communities.
