The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

I was a student-athlete while attending Chisago Lakes High School. The facilities that were built when I was going to school are truly amazing, and it is a blessing to the athletes that these facilities are now available to them. The schools teachers and other staff members are also great individual people, that students can relate to, as well as they are all great at their jobs.

I really like the athletics program at Chisago Lakes. The teachers are also very hands on and work very hard to help their students. I would like to see elective courses change to focus more on future majors. There should also be more mental health resources.
