Summary

Robbinsdale Middle is a grades 6–8 school in Robbinsdale, Minnesota — a first-ring suburb just northwest of Minneapolis — and with 567 students it is one of four middle schools in the Robbinsdale Public School District.

Academically, the school sits near the bottom of Minnesota's middle schools: 497th of 546 statewide in 2025–26, the 9th percentile, with a 0-star rating. Math proficiency is 8.5%, reading 23.8%, and 8th-grade science 2.9% — all below both district and state averages. This is not a one-year dip. Robbinsdale Middle ranked between the 11th and 16th percentile every year for a decade, and 2025–26 is the first time it fell below that band and earned zero stars. Science has declined fastest, from 17.8% two years ago to 2.9% now, which is the school's most acute gap. About 77.6% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, a figure that has stayed essentially flat for three years, so the results are not explained by a changing student population. The student-to-teacher ratio, meanwhile, improved to 14.7:1 while proficiency fell in every subject.

Comparisons with nearby schools are useful. Reading is the school's relative bright spot, landing mid-pack among nearby schools of similar demographics. Math and science are weaker. The starkest contrast is The FAIR School - Crystal, less than a mile away in the same district, ranked in the 63rd percentile with 3 stars — though it serves a much lower-poverty population. The most meaningful like-for-like benchmark is North View Middle School in the Osseo Public School District: similar size, slightly higher poverty, yet stronger results in all three subjects. Within its own district, Robbinsdale Middle ranks last, behind Sandburg Middle School, Plymouth Middle and FAIR.
