USD-373’s enrollment has dropped by 441 students, or 13 percent, from September 2015 to December of this school year. Superintendent Fred Van Ranken provided the numbers in a presentation to the Newton Board of Education at its Monday meeting. “We need to start having difficult discussions on where we’re going to land next year and start down the road after that,” Van Ranken said. Van Ranken noted that the statistics represent the number of students in the building, not actual full-time enrollment numbers, and the numbers weren’t audited.
