  1. New London-Spicer School District

    • School District
    • New London, MN
    • 13 reviews

    Parent: Top notch small school where students know everybody. Now at 125ish students per grade. Very friendly, helpful staff and teachers that obviously love their jobs. HS teachers bring real world experiences into the classroom from previous careers. High school offers numerous college credit and AP courses, and has an ever-expanding selection of career and technical offerings. Top athletic and arts facilities, with new turf football field and gymnastics facility, and one of the nicest performing arts centers in outstate MN. Well-renowned athletic programs provide great experiences for student-athletes. Isn’t much negative I can say about NL-S other than it does lack in diversity, but the district itself can’t be blamed for the make up of its population. Glad we got “stuck” in New London years ago and decided to stay and raise our children here!

    Alum: It was a great school to graduate from! I have learned so much from there. I did not participate in sports but did other extra curricular activities. There were so many different activities to get involved in.

    St. Peter Catholic School

    • Private School
    • Forest Lake, MN
    • PK, K-8
    • 56 reviews

    Parent: We have two children attending St. Peter's, for the past two years, and are so very happy with everything about the school! It is a faith filled environment, where kids are given the tools and support for both academic and social growth. A very positive loving environment, where the kids are also challenged to strive for excellence. Small class sizes, and dedicated teachers provide the one on one, personalized school experience every child should have. The staff is incredibly wonderful, including an amazing Principsl, and there is open communication. We love St. Peter's!
