The District 191 Board of Education officially adopted the 2021-22 budget at its meeting on June 17, with spending targeted to provide stability in programs and services, and provide recovery from the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

District 191 has been recognized as a 2021 Sustaining Exemplar Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) District through the Minnesota Department of Education (MDE).

The mission of the BurnsvilleStrong organization at Burnsville High School (BHS) is to unify, strengthen and inspire the community. Despite COVID sticking around for more than a year and creating barriers to programming, the teams of students were able to innovate and get creative in carrying out service projects they’d typically do in a normal year to deliver on their mission.

Through a process of public input, District 191 has adopted a new Vision and Core Values for its Strategic Roadmap.

Thirty-four employees, who have contributed a grand total of 836 years of service to Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District 191, are retiring during or after the 2020-21 school year.

Superintendent Dr. Theresa Battle will present the State of the District address at noon on  Thursday, May 20. 

In her address, Battle will reflect on District 191’s response to the challenges of delivering education during a global pandemic and look forward to how the district is positioned to deliver on its promise of a Pathways model from pre-kindergarten through graduation. 

In District One91, the commitment to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) not only exposes students to a variety of concepts earlier in life, it also helps produce a sense of consistent wonder. And that’s perfect, because our elementary Pathways model is all about making discoveries and helping students love learning. 

Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District 191 is one of eight school districts selected to receive the Comprehensive Arts Planning Program (CAPP) award from Perpich Center for Arts Education.

At Nicollet and Eagle Ridge Middle Schools, leaders know that a sense of belonging is one of the keys to helping students have success in their school journey. 

The transition into 9th grade is an exciting time for students, but we understand that at times it can also feel overwhelming, with tons of new information, options and questions. At Burnsville High School (BHS), programs and supports have intentionally been put in place to help make the 9th grade transition and experience successful.

The Pathways integration across District 191 has reached school schedules. Starting in fall 2020-2021, the Advisory period was evolved to build in social-emotional learning curriculum and career and college readiness at the middle and high school levels.

District 191 schools will stay in their current learning models for the remainder of the 2020-21 school year, Superintendent Dr. Theresa Battle announced on April 22.

We're proud to announce that Alexis and Andrew Bunnell have been selected as National Honor Society scholarship recipients.
