Since 2000, Missoula County Public Schools has led efforts in Montana to implement "Indian Education for All." The District is committed to developing students' understanding of and respect for American and Montana Indian people and their histories and cultures. Because of the unique position and place in American history, the American Indian peoples’ role in the development of the United States (with emphasis on the experience of the Montana Tribes) shall be included wherever appropriate in the instruction of MCPS students, in accordance with the state constitution and state standards.
