The State Superintendent of Public Instruction is a constitutionally established
office, elected for a four-year term. The people of Montana have been electing
a State Superintendent of Instruction as one of its five members of the
Executive Branch since the 1889 Constitution.
Montana demonstrates the high value it places
on educating our children, by electing a State
Superintendent for K-12 public education
By law, the State Superintendent
has general supervision of the K-12 public schools
and districts. The State Superintendent also
serves as a member of the Land
Board  , the State
Library Commission ,
and as an ex-officio non-voting member of the Board
of Public Education ,
the Board
of Regents for the University System ,
and the Board
of Education .
I am honored to be Montana’s
State Superintendent and believe strongly that
educating our children is the best investment
we can make. My door is always open -- please
feel free to contact me anytime.
