The Kansan
The Newton USD 373 Board of Education voted 6-0 to appointed Dayna Steinmetz to the board of education during a special meeting Jan. 6. I like a lot of the things that she can bring to the table, said board member Mallory Morton. . She has been a volunteer in the community for a very long time, which shows investment.
Steinmetz has a background in social work and work with nonprofits in the community.
She will take a position vacated by Jennifer Budde.
Budde and her husband made a decision this summer to move their children from the Newton school district to another school system. The board amended the agenda Monday to accept Budde s resignation, as she made her announcement during the board member comment portion of the meeting.
