Superintendent's Column
On Thursday, March 12, I presented my recommendation and vision for the 2026-27 budget. As much as anything else we do, a budget reflects the school district's values and intentions. With this being my first year as superintendent, I feel that truth keenly, and I want to ensure you understand what this budget recommendation means and how it came to be.
Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District 191 residents are invited to meet with Superintendent Dr. Latanya Daniels at a series of informal community conversations over the next several weeks.
