St. Paul superintendent gives notice she's leaving in 2018

St. Paul Public Schools Superintendent Valeria Silva confirmed Wednesday that her current contract will be her last — that she will be closing out a sometimes rocky tenure atop the state’s second-largest district in December 2018.

Her decision, she said, is about timing — she will be eligible for full-pension benefits then — as well as a recognition that after nine years as a superintendent, she will have completed “a long run, and it will be time for new leadership.”
