HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Nickerson-South Hutchinson USD 309 Board of Education will accept the resignation of one of its members Monday.
In a letter to the board and USD 309 Superintendent Curtis Nightingale, Jane Gamber let them know she needs to step down.
"I wish to inform you that I plan to submit my resignation from the USD 309 board effective October 1, 2024," Gamber said. "Due to family considerations and unforeseen responsibilities, I will need to focus on the priority of more immediate circumstances. I have enjoyed the fellowship serving the USD 309 community of Nickerson and South Hutchinson. Participating in board activities has provided contact with the dedicated and wise board members as we serve the students and staff and their families. And working with Superintendent Nightingale and Assistant Superintendent Amy Jones has proven to me that our district is directed by dedicated and caring leadership. It has been my privilege to serve on the board, and I will continue to support the efforts of our district to provide the best education for our students."
The board will decide on the timeline and procedure for filling the vacancy at Monday's meeting. The USD 309 Board of Education meets Monday at 7 p.m. at the district office at 4501 West Fourth.
