New Minneapolis Superintendent Lisa Sayles-Adams vows to spend first months listening

After a week as superintendent of Minneapolis Public Schools, Lisa Sayles-Adams said she’s feeling a “buzz” of excitement and hope in the district and plans to spend the next couple of months listening and learning.
