The Robbinsdale Area Schools Board of Education held a study session on Monday, Dec. 8, as part of its ongoing work to address the district’s plan to address its statutory operating debt (SOD) and move forward with Phase I of Reimagine Rdale: Vision 2030. Board members reviewed the facility recommendations previously discussed, received additional information requested at the Nov. 24 meeting, and previewed procedures for the Dec. 15 public hearing on school closures. 

Robbinsdale Area Schools (Rdale) will hold a Public Hearing on Monday, Dec. 15, 2025, regarding potential school closures. Community members who wish to provide testimony must sign up in advance using an online Google Form.

We are aware of recent reports of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) activity in Minnesota that is causing fear and uncertainty for some in our community, especially among our Somali families and other immigrant families.

We want to reaffirm our commitment to each and every student, parent/guardian and staff member: You are valued. You are welcome here. Your children belong in our schools.

The Robbinsdale Area Schools Board of Education has selected DJ (Richard) Brynteson to serve on the Board through December 2026.

The School Board has scheduled an extra Listening Time on Dec. 1 to provide more opportunities for public comment as the board navigates statutory operating debt (SOD) planning.

Families of soon-to-be kindergarteners attended our Kindergarten Information Fair on Nov. 22 to explore Rdale programs, meet staff, and learn about enrollment.
