Montrose County School District RE-1J (MCSD) is a rural school district located in west-central Colorado. It serves approximately 6,090 students in 14 schools including Early Childhood Centers, an outdoor education school, an alternative high school, a blended learning academy, and a charter school. The City of Montrose and the Town of Olathe are the major communities served by these schools. Student levels range from preschool through 12th grade. MCSD is the largest employer in Montrose County with over 850 full- and part-time employees. The mission of MCSD is to ensure that all students have a safe and academically rigorous environment in which to learn, and that all students will graduate with life skills and knowledge required to enter the workforce, to begin a career, and to attend college or other post-secondary education opportunities of their choice, without remediation. All monies that MCSD spends are dedicated toward this mission and priorities of the Strategic Plan and Master Capital Plan. To that end, our budget is designed to (1) support this vision and the Board goals, (2) recognize that staff are our most valuable asset, and (3) promote good stewardship of our public funds.
