Newton Schools Superintendent Tom Messinger

In this podcast I speak with Newton School's Superentendent Tom Messinger in a wide ranging interview. Parents are concerned about school safety and in the past school year the school system has had to enact a couple of "soft lockdowns." In this podcast Tom tells us what the difference is between a soft lockdown and a normal lockdown and what Newton Schools does to keep our schools safe. He also discusses the issue of bullying and how the schools system deals with that issue. He announces who the new Berg Middle School Principal will be. He also talks about how the Iowa Legislature's Property Tax bill effects the school system.
