• Robbinsdale Board Votes to Shutter Three Schools, Admin Building (ccxmedia.org) — Families in the Robbinsdale school district, including those living in Plymouth, face major changes after the board voted to close Noble and Sonnesyn elementary schools, Robbinsdale Middle School, and the district’s Education Service Center after 2025-26. The move follows a $21 million budget deficit and could trigger additional program shifts, with more decisions coming at a January public hearing.
