Parent: Kalispell Middle School is a fairly new construction on over 5 acres including a modern designed facility and a baseball/ soccer field. The instruction is superb. A great place for young teens.... Read 2 reviews

Senior: I love Glacier High School because of the amount of courses they offer. I can take Forensics or Astronomy or Creative Writing or Civil Engineering. Almost anything, really, and it's so much fun to learn from these teachers. They really love what they do and they're passionate about their subjects. But if you just moved into the school, it can be lonely. There's a huge amount of students, and a lot of them have been there since Freshman year. But there's also a lot of move ins right now so you're bound to find someone to connect with! I have several friends that just moved in like me, and we all love Glacier!... Read 164 reviews

Junior: I have learned so much while attending this school. Not only have I been given a great academic education, but I’ve also received a personal one from all the phenomenal teachers and staff. This school doesn’t have the largest or newest selection of academic opportunities, that’s hard to get in Montana, but in makes up for it with the quality of people it employs. The teachers are passionate and knowledgeable about what they do and are always willing to offer one on one assistance. Students are respected and given a voice that continues to grow. Couldn’t be happier with my time there.... Read 105 reviews

Niche User: This is a great school! They work well with families and even though it's large everyone is friendly and accommodating. They are family friendly, rigorous academically, and stay on top of technology and professional issues. The staff and principal work well together and I wouldn't send my kids anywhere else!...

Parent: We have had a great experience at Stillwater Christian School! My husband and I know it’s been very beneficial for all 4 of our kids to attend SCS. God willing, they will go all the way through 12th grade and become a graduate of SCS. We highly recommend SCS for the Christian character they have learned. The teachers and administrative team have been amazing towards our kids and us. It’s a partnership raising our children and the faculty is willing and loves to be apart of that. Of course the academics are important as well, but mostly importantly our kids are taught to defend their faith in Jesus. Their faith is most important to us. Our 4 kids get great teaching for academics and Christian character.... Read 55 reviews

Junior: Flathead High School has great staff, and teachers who are dedicated to their students. There are so many opportunities to learn and grow as a student. There are a variety of programs offered through the school to better the students. The IB program is very impressive with challenging classes available to prepare students for college. There are many other class options with honors, regular, and supportive classes for those who need it. They are very accepting and meet you where you are at, and accommodate you! The teachers do all they can to guarantee the students success, with additional work on their part that isn’t required. They come in early, or stay late, respond to your emails, or even help you during lunch. They work hard to create engaging lesson plans, that interest the students. There is a career center dedicated to help students prepare themselves for college, and help them apply for scholarships. The school is strong in traditions and students.... Read 194 reviews

Parent: If you are looking for a school that will come to the level of your child and give them the best possible opportunity for excellence then it's St. Matthew's. The teachers and staff take the time to get to know every child that walks through it's doors and makes them feel welcome and safe. St. Matt's nurture's not just minds but also souls. It is a place where God is made known and valued and not just tucked away for Sunday's. The best part, the teachers make it fun to learn and strive to be better humans. My kids actually look forward to the weekends being over so they can come back to school. One advantage to a small school is a sense of family.... Read 2 reviews

Parent: Excellent school! I would highly recommend this school for all grades, PK-10th. They are adding a high school grade each year until complete. This is a classical christian school. The students learn Latin and World History. With small class numbers, they receive individual attention and excel in a beautiful and safe environment. The teachers are like family and know each student and their needs. They are educating future thinkers while honoring God in all things. They emphasize the pursuit of goodness, beauty, and truth....

Parent: Montessori has offered our children and our family the supportive community we desire for education and growth. Our kids are being supported in thinking independently; to use their curiosity as fuel for a better self and a better tomorrow; and they’re actively practicing essential skills for a healthy and strong community, via their relationships there. We’re appreciative of the thoughtful and inspiring approach they take to learning, supporting the individual, and collaboration.... Read 2 reviews
