Chisago Lakes School District
School district in Minnesota, United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The 165-square-mile (430 km2) district is home to nearly 3,600 Pre-K through 12 students and their families. There are three elementary schools, one middle school, and one high school (Chisago Lakes High School). All of the district schools also offer a full range of services for students with special needs with access to specialists through the St. Croix River Education District (SCRED). This collaborative allows a smaller district to offer high-level services to special learners.[citation needed]
Chisago Lakes School District was voted one of StarTribune's Top 150 Workplaces in 2017.
To offer high-quality education in a dynamic, supportive learning environment and to help all learners develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to lead healthy, productive, fulfilling and socially responsible lives in a diverse and changing world.
The Chisago Lakes School Board voted in early 2009 to cut $1.2 million from the 2009-10 budget. A major cut across the district was specifically in special education paraprofessionals, which may affect classroom instruction.[1]
Other significant cuts were in custodial staff. As a result, parents and high school student volunteers spent the 2009 summer assisting with the repainting and cleaning of facilities across the district.[1]
District superintendent Mike McLoughlin says that more "painful" cuts will need to be made for the 2010-11 school year as well.[1]
