Parent: My three children graduated from West Lutheran High School in 2017, 2019 and 2021. They excelled academically and benefited from individual attention when needed due to the low teacher to student ratio. I can confidently confirm that they were more than ready for the rigors of college. While at West Lutheran they also had the opportunity to explore and experience the many and varied extra curricular activities. Being involved in multiple sports, national honor society, drama, choir and band enabled them to grow in confidence, leadership and team building skills. I am sure they would have loved to be involved in the newly launched STEM program, state champion bass fishing club, and successful robotics team! As a parent I appreciated the family atmosphere of the school. Direct access to faculty - even after hours - was a huge plus. All of my children found life long friends - either older or younger. Keep up the great work West!... Read 61 reviews

Current Resident: I love my life in International Falls. I have such great friends, coworkers, and teammates here. I have the chance as a high school student to graduate with an AA from Rainy River Community College, which is located right here in town. I have a great job. There is even a national park close to home. International Falls is close to Canada and many people here have dual-citizenship. Rainy Lake, Kabetogama Lake, Rainy River, and so many other waterways are nearby and open for everyone to enjoy.

Current Resident: People from different walks of life live here in relative peace and mutual support. There is a good rapport between the city leaders and the populace. A growing medical center is adding to the community's ability to extend care to many people in an area of the state with diminishing population. There is concern shown for people of all ages and abilities, with a public desire to increase services to all. Although many residents have a long history of living here, they welcome new faces and help them become part of the community.

Former Resident: Since growing up here, I have seen Albert Lea change but also grow in many different ways. I have seen it in a time where there was so much to do and have a variety of places to visit or hang out; however, since then, Albert Lea has unfortunately been on a dying path with businesses leaving and or places closing down it has been hard to feel as if there is much to do here in town. I have moved away recently to live closer to my college, and although it is always a pleasure to come back to town and see friends and family, I do still have a hard time finding something to do in my free time. As for families, I have always seen Albert Lea to be a town to settle down and relax. The neighborhoods are calm and you can feel safe in almost every part of town with friendly faces around every corner. I would recommend anyone looking for a place to settle down and relax to come here.... Read 22 reviews

It is a pretty safe place and nothing major really happens here. The schools are great and they strive to keep kids safe and bettering their education. St. Charles is in between Winona and Rochester, MN so commuting to the bigger cities takes about 20-30 minutes, unless you live in the country then the time can vary. Since it is a small town there is limited choices to find work but there are many places to go and check for an opening. The people are friendly and there are great food options.... Read 6 reviews

Parent: The curriculum is strong, with students working above grade level in many subjects. Teachers set high expectations and then help each child achieve those goals in a warm and nurturing environment. Each day students’ folders are filled with the work that they have completed so that parents can be informed of their child’s progress. Any obstacles are handled at early stages and the child is treated with the utmost respect every step of the way. The emphasis on STEAM is helping to prepare students for a successful future. Every member of the staff knows each kid--not only their names, but their individual personalities. Additional benefits of ACE include smaller class sizes, character development, a uniform that minimizes drama in the mornings, responsive staff, and an exceptional facility. I am confident that my children have a strong educational foundation and love of learning that will serve them well going forward.... Read 7 reviews
