The well-being and accomplishment of all Montana students is vital to the future success of the state. More specifically, increasing academic achievement and providing all students with a quality education will result in the opportunity for students to have more choices beyond their K-12 experience. This is what the business of education is all about and this is the reason that administrators, teachers, support staff, school trustees, families and communities work so hard in Montana. This report is intended to enhance and support the important work of closing the American Indian Student achievement gap. With careful analysis of the following data and the appropriate collaboration and support from educators, administrators, parents, and communities, all students will become successful participants contributing to the balance both within their communities and throughout the state of Montana.
