A new school year is at hand
 | I am honored to introduce myself as the Superintendent of the Chisago Lakes Public Schools! My name is Dean Jennissen, and I am looking forward to serving the students, staff, and families in these beautiful cities with fantastic schools. My wife Lisa, who is also an educator, and I have been married for nearly 28 years. We have two beautiful, grown daughters, who, we like to say, “are off the payroll” working as a Speech-Language Pathologist and an Agronomist. They too, are excited about mom and dad’s move to the Chisago Lakes Area and will be visiting often as they both live in the east metro.

| Thimm calls it a career |
Each and every one of us longs to someday retire on our own terms. Some of us are lucky to do so, some of us are not. We work our entire life for the hopes of one day not having an agenda, not having to be at work on time, and not having to answer to our superiors.
