Welcome to the Chisago Lakes area, five historical communities united by a strong school district with a tradition of excellence. Each community offers both a unique history and a contemporary charm all its own.
The 165 square-mile district is home to nearly 3,500 Pre-K through 12 students and their families. There are three elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school. The district is proud of its tradition of excellence in academics, fine arts, community education and extracurricular activities.
All of our schools also offer a full range of services for students with special needs with access to highly qualified specialists through the St. Croix River Education District (SCRED). This collaborative allows a smaller district to offer high-level services to special learners.
Today, the Chisago Lakes area is a vibrant corridor to year-round recreation with a charming family atmosphere. Just 35 miles from the bustling cities of Minneapolis & St. Paul, the Chisago Lakes area is the growing home to people seeking a great place to live, work, play and get involved in the community and schools.
Mission Statement
Through the actions of its administrators and governing body, and through collaboration with other service agencies, SCRED will strive for equity of opportunity for all learners by facilitating cooperation, collaboration, communication and collective excellence among its member districts.
Wolf Creek is a tuition-free hybrid online charter school authorized by Chisago Lakes School. Wolf Creek is accredited by NCA and CITA. Instruction is technology based and the course work can be completed off campus. Curriculum is available 24/7 online and students have the option to work on campus each week. Our school is based on a "small community" philosophy. Students are lead by one individual who helps them in academic, as well as, non-academic areas of their lives. This caring individual is called a Learning Manager and is the center of our school model. We are located just outside of Minneapolis / St Paul MN and would love to show the opportunity an online high school and distance learning can make available to you and your student.
