(KNZA)---Jefferson West USD 340 has hired a new superintendent.

USD 340 Board of Education President Dave Jensen announced in a release on the district's website that the board voted unanimously Monday evening to hire Dr. Brad Neuenswander for the position.

Neuenswander has served as interim superintendent since last November following the termination of former superintendent Jason Crawford.

Jensen said Neuenswander's focus will be on long-term planning, finding an education solution for the district' s at-risk preschoolers and working through facilities challenges.

Jensen said Neuenswander's resume couldn't be any more suited to leading the district. He has been a classroom teacher, building principal, superintendent of schools, director of school finance for Kansas, and Deputy Commissioner of Education at the Kansas State Department of Education. He also served as the interim Commissioner of Education at the state department of education.

Jensen said Dr. Neuenswander and his wife have long-established roots in the district, having lived in Ozawkie for 17 years. Both their children graduated from Jeff West schools.
