Our Vision: Excellence for Every Student Every Day

The Forest Lake Area School District 831 is located 30 miles north of the Twin Cities, along the I-35 corridor that runs north to Duluth. It is an area dotted by lakes, rolling hills, woods and small towns. Many residents enjoy our rural, small-town life and find they can easily commute to the Twin Cities Area

The academic efforts of our students are supported by excellent teachers (67% of our staff have earned a Masters Degree), challenging curriculum, technology, high standards and a safe learning environment. The school district's strong traditional  academic program is enhanced by award-winning co-curricular and extra-curricular activities, gifted education offerings and a full range of special education programming.

As the largest employer in the area, Forest Lake Area School District employs over 1,200 persons, including teachers, clerical staff, aides, custodians, bus drivers, cooks, mechanics and administrators.
 

How do our families feel about Forest Lake Area Schools?

Each year we survey our families to see how satisfied they are with various aspects of their students' education. We are happy to say that the results are overwhelmingly positive.
