Your State-to-Schedule Blueprint
What Is Required
Montana families notify the county superintendent each school year, keep attendance and immunization/exemption records, provide the required basic instructional program, and meet the public-school-equivalent aggregate instructional time applicable to the grade. The companion includes annual county notice, grade-based hour calculator, statutory subject map, attendance, health record checklist, and portfolio. Because OPI’s packet and local forms can change, the parent is directed to confirm the current county form before submission.
Tier 3 State Companion: Editable, parent-reviewable 36-week Curriculum Summary Draft with student and grade/year details, parent and instructor fields, four nine-week review/report dates, and subject-by-subject scope, sequence, objectives, resources, methods, and progress evidence. It also adds annual county notice, instructional-hour calendar, attendance, immunization, and required basic-instruction subjects. Parent review and submission remain required.

What Is Not Required
The guide separates mandatory steps from optional best practices and will not add a filing simply because a planner template exists.
Your Next Steps
Review and correct every generated field, confirm the current official source and local/pathway instructions, sign where appropriate, and submit any required notice, plan, report, evaluation, or other form yourself. K–5 Blueprint does not file on the family's behalf or guarantee agency acceptance.
