"Rice Lake’s Board of Education is committed to advocating the best use of our resources for students, while remaining responsible to the community."

The very first Rice Lake public school was founded in 1880. Our founders stated that the establishment of schools on the frontier would shape the future independences and prosperity of the entire country. Today, 126 years later, we still believe that the educational development of each individual will insure both personal and nation-wide success.

Students first come to us in childhood. Small classes and a strong emphasis on teaching reading during the primary years give them a strong start and provide a sound base for further learning. Recognizing the individuality of each student, we offer a broad range of programs and activities, from a solid academic foundation to a variety of opportunities in the arts. Competence in technology and physical education/spots contribute to the development of the total person. Add a safe environment, respect for cultural diversity, community service and career development opportunities, and the student is well on his/her way to being a lifelong learner.

Rice Lake’s Board of Education is committed to advocating the best use of our resources for students, while remaining responsible to the community. Since 1997, the District has utilized a District Strategic Plan with a mission to prepare each individual to become knowledgeable, resourceful, resilient and respectful member of our global society by providing a challenging education in partnership with families and the community.

The following pages present information about our schools. Each has its own personality, character, and dedicated staff, but all have one thing in common: a sincere determination to do whatever it takes to see that each child succeeds.
