1.1A What To Expect (Montana)

Welcome to OpenEd, a one-of-a-kind personalized learning program that empowers you to design the perfect education for your student!

Many new parents ask: What does enrolling with OpenEd mean? What's expected from my family?

What Your Enrollment Gets You

1. Premium educational resources.

What We'll Ask From You

To stay enrolled, your student needs to: 

1. Submit a weekly learning log. 

To demonstrate their active participation in the program, your student will use our
platform to submit a short summary of what they learned throughout the week.

We strongly encourage students to submit their own learning logs, but parents can
also submit logs for their students if necessary.

Learn more about learning logs here.

2. Stay informed about Montana's education laws. 

For the 26-27 school year, your student will not be enrolled in a public school as part of the OpenEd program. As such, participation in OpenEd does not cover Montana's attendance requirements. Whether you homeschool or attend a private school, it's up to you to ensure you're complying with state education laws.
