Best Special Needs Schools in Little Canada, Minnesota (2026)

Roseville Area Middle School serves more than 850 seventh and eighth graders in Little Canada. Every student belongs to a team: seventh graders join Pegasus, SuperNova or Cosmos, and eighth graders join Red Giant, Aquarius or Dorado. Our Raider Pride expectations ask students to be responsible, show respect and help build community. Students who want more challenge can join our Talent and Advanced Academics groups. Our Student Support Services team takes an interdisciplinary approach to student mental health, with a counselor for each grade, a social worker and a health office. The team helps with academic and personal concerns, connects families with food, housing, medical and mental health resources, and coordinates support for students in out-of-home placements or experiencing homelessness. Each fall we host Family Connection Night, when families share dinner, join teachers in STAR and TEAMS classes and finish with schoolwide bingo.
