I love my daughter's school. She is an advanced student, and has been given so much extra attention to help her grow and succeed. By November of her 1st grade year, she was reading at a 6th grade level! She has been exposed to music, organized sports (girls' baskeball - my favorite), and a loving community of teachers and parents. She has made lasting friends, and I'm so happy to have found such a wonderful environment for her to get her educational foundation.

"Cottage Grove has nice mid-upper mid class families but is seriously lacking in business and things for the family or kids to do as they grow. No library-though a committee has been working on it for 10+ years.. no skate park... no pool.. but there is a rugby field. Besides a neighborhood park, there is no common/safe place for tweens/teens to socialize together publicly. It should be noted that CG is a quiet, low crime, safe community. Police do a great job and I still feel very comfortable leaving my car running at the gas station in winter!"

"Cottage Grove is a quiet and safe community with a great school district. We have been here 14 years and have had no issues. We love being just far enough out of town to enjoy a more country setting yet close enough to be there in minutes. "
