I lived in CL for 2 years and visited my mom every other weekend for 10 years there as a child, but did not attend school there. What I can say is that the public schools in Iowa as a whole are EXCELLENT. We set the standard for education, as far as I am concerned (ala Iowa Tests of Basic Schools administered to millions of students country-wide every year). You will fall in love with Clear Lake the first week you move there. The people are amazing, the town is SO clean and quaint, and it has a great reputation for being a 'diamond in the rough' kinda town. It is a great place to live year-round, too. There is a winter carnival/parade in December, a kite festival in February, etc. and don't get me started on summer stuff. You will be making the best decision of your life, moving your 3 kid family to Clear Lake.

As far as public vs private schools...I am personally against mixing religion with education, blah blah blah, BUT I can tell you that the only private school I can think of in the area is Newman Catholic in Mason City, about 8 miles from Clear Lake...but that might be only high school. I don't know if there is a private school right in CL.

???? Huh? I can understand not mixing STATE sponsored public schools and religion, but what the heck does your statement have to do with anything (unless that is what you meant) regarding the question that was asked?
