RED LAKE—Rachel Schoelkoph has always had a love for animals and nature. It is because of that devotion she is able to love—and live today. Schoelkoph grew up in the woodsy Little Rock district of Red Lake, where she resides with her husband Richard. The couple moved to Schoelkoph's hometown in 2012, after they were married and settled into a mobile home. "There was a cat stuck under the trailer," Schoelkoph said. "It was just pitiful, so I saved it." http://www.bemidjipioneer.com/news/3856137-solace-sticks-woodworking-helps...

Minneapolis school board members are expected to meet in two weeks to get new information on the racial makeup of schools and district boundaries, some of the most divisive issues facing the district.

Board members and administrators say the private sessions are c...
