The District serves approximately 3,400 students (PreK‑12) and their families. Our Primary School, located in Chisago City, serves our Pre‑K to grade 1 students. Taylors Falls Elementary School, located in Taylors Falls, serves grades PreK‑5 and our Lakeside Elementary School, located in Chisago City, serves grades 2‑5. Chisago Lakes Middle School and High School are both located in Lindstrom. The Chisago Lakes School District is the authorizer for Wolf Creek Charter School and collaborates with the St.

Croix River Education District to house the Chisago Lakes Education Center which consists of the Pathway to Change and SOAR (Skill‑building Opportunities for Academic Resiliency) programs. The support for education in our communities is strong as evidenced by support for nearly $65 million in construction from 2018‑2020. A new Lakeside Elementary School and new Wildcat Community Center highlight new construction and renovations throughout the district.
