Why Sussex School?
Sussex is a K-8 school providing top education in Missoula, MT.
Through the arts, the outdoors, and challenging curriculum we develop
critical thinking, creativity, courage, and citizenship in all our students.
"As a parent, the most striking thing about Sussex School is how much my kids enjoy going to school. This was a foreign concept at prior places. The engaged faculty, creative opportunities, and an emphasis on learning (rather than busy work) make Sussex School a place where my children thrive."

Our Programs
We know you want to feel confident that your child is in a learning environment where they are able to reach their potential. That means choosing a school that understands that there is more to a school than classroom learning, homework, and standardized tests. We incorporate these philosophies into our teaching to offer a top education in Missoula, MT.
School should be fun AND challenging. At Sussex, we believe that children learn best through strong relationships and a nurturing environment. That's why we created a curriculum that is challenging and progressive. Students become confident, enthusiastic learners and caring participants in our local and global communities in their years at Sussex.
