Welcome to CFP, Missoula Valley’s only place-based and independent high school. We’re glad you’re here!

Clark Fork Prep is a school for students eager to be curious, creative, and part of a thriving community. We’re excited to meet the class of 2030 and see how these teenagers help shape CFP for years to come.

At CFP, students prepare for their futures–whatever those might include–in a variety of ways. Whether headed to an Ivy League institution, culinary school, UM, the workforce, or a thousand other possibilities, students will feel ready for anything when they graduate from CFP. Dedicated to helping teenagers reach their potential and achieve their goals, Clark Fork Prep teachers guide our students along every step of the journey.

Indeed, Clark Fork Prep is a different kind of prep school.

As you consider joining the CFP community, here are a few things to keep in mind:
