Missoulian: Montana
adopts new arts, health, P.E. standards for public schools
Content Standards Revision
“Many of Montana's public school content standards haven't been updated in more than a decade. Content standards include a broad set of subject areas that outline what a student should know and be able to do. The content standards are not a set of curricula, but rather a guide for teachers and school leaders. At the direction of the Board of Public Education, the Office of Public Instruction began facilitation of content standards revision for Arts, Health Enhancement, and Science in 2015.”
