Huntley Project High School is a high school in Worden, Montana. Home of the Red Devils, the Huntley Project School District serves students living in four small Montana communities: Worden, Ballantine, Huntley, and Pompeys Pillar, with total population nearing 3,000 people. It is located 20 miles (32 km) east of Montana's largest city, Billings, in the south-eastern part of Montana.
Total 2006-2007 enrollment is 739 students, grades K - 12. The high school currently has 226 students, making Huntley Project a Class B school in the Montana High School Association.
The name ‘Huntley Project’ is short for Huntley Irrigation Project, which was the second U.S. Bureau of Reclamation irrigation project. The area was part of the Crow Indian Reservation from 1874 to 1904 when the government purchased the 35,000 acres (140 km²), stretching across 27 miles (43 km) from Huntley, east to the Little Bull Mountains.
Huntley Projects goals are that each student:
1. Develops intellectually according to interests, needs and abilities.
