Welcome

Montrose County School District Re-1J is located in southwestern Colorado, and provides a first-rate, public education to students in the communities of Montrose and Olathe. We have a strong farming and ranching heritage, and a hometown look and feel. We are a growing community, with an influx of families who seek a "quality of life" for their children. We are also home to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park.
