City of Arden Hills – 2040 Comprehensive Plan <br /> <br /> <br />Approved:, 2018 <br />13-11 <br />13.8 PUBLIC SCHOOLS <br /> <br />Almost all of Arden Hills is in the Mounds View School District (ISD 621); however, a <br />small area in the southern part of Arden Hills is within the Roseville School District (ISD <br />623). Two of the eleven Mounds View School District buildings are located in Arden <br />Hills: the Mounds View High School at 1900 Lake Valentine Road and Valentine <br />Elementary at 1770 West County Road E2. The Mounds View School is also a partner <br />in the joint maintenance facility used by the City and Ramsey County. <br /> <br />The Mounds View School District is one of the highest rated school districts in the state <br />and is a valued organization in the community. In addition to serving Arden Hills, the <br />Mounds View School District also serves all or part of the cities of Blaine, Mounds View, <br />New Brighton, Roseville, Shoreview, North Oaks, Spring Lake Park, and Vadnais <br />Heights as well as White Bear Township. During the 2015-2016 school year, Mounds <br />View High School had approximately 1,650 students and was the twenty-seventh <br />largest high school in the State. Valentine Elementary currently serves approximately <br />600 students. The district is anticipating 1,600 additional students over the next seven <br />years and expects to accommodate these additional students by renovating and <br />expanding its existing facilities. <br /> <br />The Roseville School District has 10 buildings; however, none of them are located in <br />Arden Hills. In addition to serving Arden Hills, the district also includes all or parts of the <br />cities of Falcon Heights, Lauderdale, Little Canada, Maplewood, Roseville, and <br />Shoreview. <br /> <br />13.9 HIGHER EDUCATION <br /> <br />While not technically a public service, Arden Hills is home to two private higher <br />education institutions: Bethel University and University of Northwestern. Bethel <br />University is located south of Interstate 694 and is on the shoreline of Lake Valentine. <br />The University has a long range Master Plan and future expansion on the campus is <br />expected. Bethel University acquired the former Country Financial campus at 2 Pine <br />Tree Drive in 2013 and plans to slowly grow into the facility over the next 5 to 10 years. <br />The site will be used for classrooms and general office uses. <br /> <br />Split by the Roseville-Arden Hills border, University of Northwestern is located in the <br />south part of the City on the southern shore of Lake Johanna. The College does not <br />have road access into Arden Hills; however, many of the College’s educational buildings <br />are located in Arden Hills. Both Roseville and Arden Hills approved a long range <br />Master Plan for University of Northwestern in 2007. <br /> <br /> <br />Dr <br />a <br />f <br />t <br /> <br />11 <br />/ <br />2 <br />0 <br />/ <br />2 <br />0 <br />1 <br />7
