Two finalists in the superintendent search for the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage School District have also been chosen as the two finalists in the White Bear Lake School District.

Following first-round interviews in White Bear Lake last week, Nancy Rajanen and Michael Lovett were announced as their final two options.

District 191 named Lovett and Rajanen, as well as a third candidate, Randy Clegg, as finalists in the search for a new district leader last week, after two other finalists backed out of the running.

The 191 School Board plans to interview Rajanen tonight, (Tuesday, April 1) and Lovett Wednesday, April 2, aiming to make a final decision between the three finalists Thursday, April 3 – one day after the White Bear Lake District plans to make an offer to either Rajanen or Lovett.

The interviews begin each night at 6 p.m. at the Administrative Services Center, 100 River Ridge Court, Burnsville.  Keighla Schmidt can be reached at kschmidt@swpub.com [2].
