We’re closely monitoring the forecasted winter storm and the potential impact on school for Monday, March 16, 2026. No decision has been made at this time.

Due to the forecasted weather, the 2 p.m. Sunday performance of Newsies Jr. at FAIR School Crystal has been postponed.

We are writing to share an update about the temporary online learning option that was offered beginning in January. This option will end on Friday, March 27, which is the last day of school before Spring Break.

We are seeing much more sickness throughout our building as the temperature changes. Your child’s attendance is important to us, so is their health.

As a school we are also looking for a few donations that you can drop at the front office:

Clorox Wipes

Hand Sanitizer

Yearbooks are now on sale until April 1st, 2026.

In grades K-8, we expect personal devices to be put “away for the day.” This includes all electronic communication devices such as smart watches, pens, glasses, Bluetooth headphones/earbuds, etc. If brought to school, these devices must be stored in a backpack or checked in to a teacher and remain out of sight and not in use during the school day. Careful consideration was given to the following research. 

At its March 2 meeting, the Robbinsdale Area Schools Board of Education approved a calendar adjustment for the 2025-26 school year affecting K-8 students.

Daylight Saving Time begins this weekend

As part of a culture of academic integrity, we would like to remind families and students of the importance of test security.

At its March 2, 2026, meeting, the Robbinsdale Area Schools Board of Education provided early direction on Phase II of the Reimagine Rdale: Vision 2030 process, signaling support for continued planning toward a one-high-school model centered on renovating and repurposing existing district facilities.

Last year, Robbinsdale Area Schools asked our community a simple but important question: What should education and our schools look like in the years ahead? 

Through Reimagine Rdale: Vision 2030, we listened carefully to students, families and staff about what matters most as we build the school district our students want, need and deserve. Those conversations were honest, thoughtful and sometimes difficult, but they were exactly what our district needed to begin shaping a stronger future together.

Robbinsdale Area Schools is asking families to share honest, anonymous feedback about your school so we can celebrate what’s working—and improve what isn’t.

Across Rdale, teams are actively preparing for the 2026-27 school year. Our focus is simple and steady: ensuring that every student enters next year supported, welcomed, and ready to learn.

Spring conferences will take place on Tuesday, March 10th,Thursday, March 12th, and Tuesday, March 17th. 

The School of Engineering and Arts will conduct an annual student opinion survey with students in grades 4 and 5.  In an effort to include student voice, the district survey will allow us to gather student perspectives on  priority areas within our strategic plan: academic achievement, student engagement & wellness and school culture.
