The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students.

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.

The atmosphere at Glacier is awesome. The teachers are very welcoming and if you need the help, they will help you. They go out of their way to make sure you're understanding the lesson. They also have a wide variety of extracurricular activities and clubs.

Don't put as much work into the academics and to much into sports my child complains about the food all the time saying its not edible.

Glacier has a great facility and I have had many teachers that care a lot for there students and put alot of effort in. However, Montana in general is not a very academic state and this can be seen in the school only really caring that students meet the bear minimum rather than pushing them to excel.

We absolutely love this school! They have a wonderful outdoor classes program that allows the kids to learn archery, basic life skills, go skiing, hiking, rafting and fishing and more! I couldn't recommend this school more. The teachers are kind and we have felt very welcomed here!
