The Carlton School District sits adjacent to beautiful Jay Cooke State Park, which offers biking, snowmobiling and hiking.
Chub Lake is located three miles southwest of the schools.
The lake has an abundance of fish and is a great lake for swimming and other recreational activities. Thanks to the support of community members, Carlton recently passed a ten year excess levy referendum. These monies will assure students a quality education as they prepare for the challenges of the 21st century.
