The Great Falls school system has 2 high schools, and 1 private Catholic high school. There is 1 alternative high school. This information is on the Education sign post.
The Great Falls Public School System begins its 2005-2006 school calendar on 29 August. "A MUST:" Proof of birth date and current shot records for student enrollment. It is a federal rule that only 10 days a semester are allowed for absences from high school; if a student takes more than 10 days, he or she is at risk of losing credit (exceptions are made on a case by case basis).
If you bring your child's school records with you, they must be in a sealed envelope from the school previously attended; otherwise, the school system here will send for them. Be sure to bring the address and phone number of the school your child last attended.
All high school children residing on base will attend Charles M. Russell High School.
