Arts & Wellness

To support education of the mind, body, and creative spirit, WGE students receive regular instruction in technology, Spanish, music, art, and physical education in addition to the reading and math curricula. Monthly visits from Glacier National Park rangers, also give students the opportunity to observe and learn about the local history, landscape, flora, and fauna.  

WGE students participate in a variety of activities which might include, weekly 1.5-mile walks, swim lessons, ski lessons, an annual bicycle ride, and a Missoula Children’s Theatre performance each year. Other educational field trips and special events are scheduled as opportunities arise–see the Student/Parent Handbook for a typical list.

In addition, Montana state law requires that “Every Montanan . . . whether Indian or non-Indian, be encouraged to learn about the distinct and unique heritage of American Indians in a culturally responsive manner.” Funding provided by the state helps WGE students to engage in a number of activities each year that support this goal, including field trips and cultural activities.
