MT Content Standards Revision

2022 - 2026

 

The purpose of the standards review process is to ensure that Montana public schools are setting high academic standards for all children of our great state. Our goal is to serve our Montana students and educators with the best possible standards to guide instruction and prepare our students for their lives beyond the classroom.

Here you will find a variety of resources regarding the current standards revisions including: 

  • Current Standards in Revision
