Great teachers, great programs, great location and neighborhood. This school has a huge playground where the kids play at recess and it is nestled in one of Bozeman's quiet residential neighborhoods away from main roads and other hazards that can be dangerous to small children. Best public school in Bozeman bar none!

About the tests


In 2010-2011 Montana used the Criterion-Referenced Test (CRT) to assess students in grades 3 though 8 and 10 in reading and math and in grades 4, 8, and 10 in science. The CRT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Montana. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level.
