Summary:

The Red Lake County Central Public School district in Minnesota operates three schools: two elementary schools (Red Lake County Central Elementary and RLCC Elementary at Oklee) and one high school (Red Lake County Central High School). The district serves a population with relatively lower socioeconomic status, as evidenced by the high free/reduced lunch rates at both the elementary and high school.
