School Overview
Lima School (serving grades 7–8) is a small, rural public school located in the town of Lima, Montana. As part of the Lima K-12 School District, the institution provides a personalized educational environment situated in the heart of Beaverhead County. Because of its remote location in a sparsely populated region of southwestern Montana, the school operates with a focus on small class sizes, fostering close-knit relationships between students, faculty, and the local community.

The school is dedicated to preparing students for high school transitions while emphasizing core academic standards within a supportive, community-centered atmosphere. Its operations are characterized by the typical challenges and strengths of rural Montana education, where limited enrollment allows for individualized attention and a curriculum tailored to the needs of local families. For those seeking detailed information on current academic calendars, faculty contacts, or district policies, the school maintains an official website at http://www.lima.k12.mt.us.
