Online Schooling Options & Information

Harmony Educational Services

Think of Harmony as a "best of both worlds" approach for families who want the freedom of home-based learning without losing the support system of a public school. It’s a tuition-free partnership that lets you take the lead on your child's education while providing the professional resources to back you up.

• Customized Learning: You aren't stuck with a one-size-fits-all curriculum. You can mix online programs with traditional textbooks to find what actually clicks with your child.

• A Helping Hand: Every family is paired with a mentor to help navigate the school year, and certified teachers are always available to ensure your student is hitting their milestones.

• The Allowance: To help offset the costs of learning at home, Harmony provides an annual educational allowance that can be used for things like high-quality curriculum, tech tools (like laptops), and even art or science supplies.

Montana Digital Academy (MTDA)

Hosted by the University of Montana, MTDA is our state’s premier online classroom. It’s designed to fill in the gaps—whether a student wants to take a specialized class our local school doesn't offer, needs to make up a credit, or wants to get a jump start on college.

• Expand Your Horizons: With over 80 courses ranging from core subjects to Advanced Placement (AP) and Dual Credit, students can explore interests that go beyond a standard schedule.

• Real Teachers: These aren't just automated modules; every course is led by a licensed Montana teacher who understands our state's standards and student needs.

• Getting Started: Because this is a supplemental program, enrollment is handled right here through our school counselor to make sure the credits fit perfectly into the student’s graduation plan.

• Extra Tools: Don't forget to check out EdReady, their free tool for sharpening math and English skills at your own pace.
