Abstract:

The Montana Schools layer is comprised of public and private schools in Montana based on Montana Office of Public Instruction (OPI) data. All public and private schools accredited by OPI are included, as well as non-accredited private schools that have been reported to OPI. Therefore, this is not a complete database of all private schools in Montana.
