Schools get their own report cards under federal law

Students aren’t the only ones who receive report cards monitoring their performance.

The Montana Office of Public Instruction has released report cards summarizing the state of Montana schools online for the 2017-19 school year as part of a new requirement of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act. There are 822 public schools in 409 school districts in Montana.

People are able to view academic, attendance, financial, school climate/safety and educator qualification data at the state, district and school levels.
