Big Horn

Big Horn is an active public supervisory union based in Hardin, Montana (ZIP code 59034). Situated within a rural remote geographic setting, this administrative entity plays a vital organizational role within the regional educational system. Maintaining an open operating status for the 2024–2025 academic year, the supervisory union provides central governance and administrative coordination for its area. While it does not register a traditional physical street address in federal reporting, its central administration can be reached directly at (406) 665-9820.

Functioning as a supervisory administrative body rather than a standard instructional school district, Big Horn manages zero operational schools directly and offers no direct grade-level instruction spanning from prekindergarten through 12th grade. The district's operations are sustained by a lean, specialized team consisting of two full-time equivalent support staff members. For parents, students, and educational researchers, Big Horn exemplifies the supervisory union model—focusing resources on administrative governance and cross-district support services tailored to Montana's rural communities.
