The presence of federal immigration agents in Minnesota has impacted Roseville Area Schools for months, leading to increasing absences, food and housing insecurity, and a groundswell of support mobilized by teachers, staff, and community members across the district.

Even after the announcement that the number of federal agents will be decreasing in Minnesota, the impact on the school community continues.
