Superintendent's Column
Residents of Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District 191 are invited to have “Tea with Dr. T” on Wednesday, April 19 from 3 to 5 p.m. at Arise Nicolette Coffee Company in Burnsville’s Heart of the City.
In our schools, student agency is reflected from the youngest grades, such as during the regular Rahn Enrichment Academies, all the way to high school, where student input helped our English department completely reimagine course offerings to grow interest and engagement.
The Profile is a totally new endeavor for District 191. We’ve had our Strategic Roadmap, which outlines our mission, vision and strategic directions, for more than a decade. That Roadmap makes clear our priorities as a district, helps define who we are, and provides direction for our work, especially as we make decisions about how we spend money and develop programs.
