Building a predictable,
intentional path forward

Robbinsdale Area Schools (Rdale) is at a crossroads. Over multiple decades, intentional decisions have been made with a focus on desires for students that have not remained feasible or sustainable over the long term. Operating aging, 60-year-old buildings amid more than a decade of enrollment decline is no longer fiscally responsible or student-centered.

This bond referendum is our opportunity to build a predictable, intentional path forward. By rightsizing our facilities, we can stop spending money on underutilized, ineffective, and inefficient spaces and start investing directly in the programs and learning spaces our students want, need, and deserve.

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the November referendum. Together, we can create a stronger, more sustainable future for our students and communities by Building Better Together.

VOTERS APPROVE

QUESTIONS 1 & 2

Robbinsdale Area Schools voters have approved approximately $360 million in school facility investments through the Building Better Together: 2026 Bond Referendum. Question 3, a new elementary school on the Robbinsdale Middle School site, did not pass.

“This is a defining moment for Robbinsdale Area Schools and our community,” said Superintendent Dr. Teri Staloch. “We are incredibly grateful to our voters for participating in this important decision and for the trust they have placed in our district. These investments will allow us to reimagine out schools, address critical facility needs, and create learning environments and opportunities that better serve our students today and well into the future.”
