Hi, my name is Daniel Ludvigson. I am the Superintendent/Elementary Principal at Elgin/New Leipzig. I have been a superintendent here since July, 2017. Previously I worked at Munich Public School for 5 years as their K-12 principal and art instructor. I have been in education since 2007 with my original content area being art. I obtained my masters in education at Minnesota State University Moorhead. In 2017 I received the Bell Ringer award. Presently I am president of the special education unit (SSEU) and sit on the CREA board.
I believe in always making decisions with the best interests of students in mind. Students may have many different needs, skills and abilities but they all have a right to a quality education.
I am married and we have three children. I grew up in rural Minnesota on a farm. We raised cattle and harvested corn and soy beans. I enjoy spending time with my kids, fishing, and camping. I am also the local cub scout master.
