A Major step was taken last week in the search for Berg Middle School’s next Principal. Central Office Administrators say three finalists had formal interviews. They each met with interview teams made up of administrators and a mix of teachers, support staff, and three community members. The candidates were given tours of Berg Middle School by students, and retiring High School Principal Bill Peters spoke with each candidate about the Newton community. As soon as the decision on a new principal is made, District leaders will release an announcement on who that is. Steve Seid is the current interim Berg Middle School Principal. It’s a position he’ll hold through the end of May.
