Forest Lake Area Schools

Forest Lake Area High School recently wrapped up their Healthcare Career Camp with 54 students, showcasing the important and in-demand opportunities in this career pathway. Throughout the camp, students were fully immersed in real-world medical experiences. At the high school, our own teachers and student leaders guided participants through suturing techniques, dementia care, blood typing labs, and a quiz bowl. Students also tackled an interactive public health outbreak scenario facilitated alongside guests from Washington County and the State of Minnesota. Our continuing partnership with Fairview Lakes Medical Center brought these concepts full circle as students toured hospital departments, practiced IV simulations and injection blocks, analyzed X-rays in Imaging, explored the OR and ER, heard from hospital administration and earned their Stop the Bleed certification.

Our high school's Industrial Tech students are learning marketable skills and seeing them applied in real life. This student-built smoker is now being used by Frost & Flame BBQ.

Now this is truly awesome!

This smoker was built right here at home by Forest Lake Rangers Industrial Tech students. Young people learning real skills, working with their hands, and building something they can be proud of for years to come. And we are proud to display it this season!

We’re incredibly proud to support this program and the future students who will continue learning these trades and building the communities we call home.

This is bigger than a smoker.

Built by students. Built in our hometown. Built for the future.

Proud to have the Forest Lake Rangers riding alongside Frost & Flame. 🔥

Students from Columbus Elementary and Scandia Elementary have been enjoying brand new playground equipment this year. The new playgrounds were provided thanks to each school's Parent Teacher Organization along with generous donations from the community. Lots of smiles from the kids who get to have recess with such fun playground equipment, and a huge thanks to those who made it possible!
