Family pick-up will look a little different this year as we work to alleviate congestion and be more efficient for everyone. If your family regularly picks up your child/ren each week, please complete this google form to help us identify the families who will participate in family pick-up.

Our school supply lists have been updated for the upcoming year. The change is only to those grades that will be using a planner. The PTA is going to cover the costs of the planners for our students.

Students who attend Robbinsdale Area Schools must be in compliance with the Minnesota Immunization Law. Families have until October 15 to complete required immunizations or submit an exemption form.  

Every year, each student is provided with a one-to-one device for use at school. We encourage families to purchase a device protection plan to help avoid unexpected costs that may occur due to theft or accidental damage while the device is in your child's care.

We need your help! Meals are free again this year, but we still need all families to complete an Educational Benefits application each year.

Educational Benefits are about more than just free or reduced-price breakfast and lunch. Families who qualify may also receive discounts on device protection plans, band and orchestra instruments, and much more!

Bus stop information is still being finalized by the district. Once it is available, you will be able to access your child's transportation information through the Parent Portal.

As a reminder, if your child will be traveling to or from a child care provider (excluding Adventure Club), you must also complete the Child Care Transportation Form each year. Please keep in mind that it takes approximately two weeks for child care transportation requests to be processed, so we encourage you to submit the form as soon as possible if it applies to your family.

New this year: The district is asking all families to complete the Annual Update in the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. This update includes opting in for transportation, confirming emergency contacts, and reviewing other important student information.

You should have received an email about the Annual Update or seen information on the district's social media channels. Although the original deadline was July 31, please complete the update as soon as possible if you have not already done so. Completing the Annual Update helps ensure we have accurate information and that your child is ready for the first day of school.

As a reminder, our school year is starting earlier than it has in the past—before Labor Day. Because Labor Day falls later this year, many schools across the state are beginning before the holiday, which allows us to finish the school year earlier in the summer.

Facing a critical crossroads for its future, the Robbinsdale Area Schools Board of Education has approved three bond referendum questions to be placed before voters on the Nov. 3, 2026, ballot.

Robbinsdale Area Schools has launched the Annual Update for the 2026-27 school year, available through the Infinite Campus Parent Portal. The Annual Update allows families to review and update important student information—including transportation preferences, parent/guardian contact information, emergency contacts, annual opt-outs, and more—all in one place.

As Robbinsdale Area Schools (Rdale) continues its Reimagine Rdale: Vision 2030 planning process, the School Board met June 15, 2026 (watch the meeting | see the agenda) to provide direction on the next phase of long-range facilities planning and a potential building bond referendum.
