We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Through my experience at Jefferson High School in Boulder Montana, I've come to love the community and the experience that comes with it. The teachers are helpful and most make a point to connect with each and every student. However, because of the size of my School, I have missed out on several opportunities such as AP classes and IB classes. My school has one AP, and no IB classes. This is what I would like to see change. I'd like for other kids to have a chance to experience different and harder classes than I have.

I have gone to Jefferson High School for all 4 years. It is a small school with good teachers, and it offers multiple types of extracurricular activities. It also has multiple dual-enrollment math and science classes, as well as AP English classes.

I honestly love it here so much. I started my high school career at a different school and had a not so good experience, so my decision to transfer was one of the best I have ever made. The only thing I would change is the attitudes of other students toward the school because they honestly do not know how awful other schools are.
