Candidate for school board postpones campaign events after family member tests positive for COVID.

By SARA VANDEN BERGE

Matt Miller told Beneath the Surface News on Sunday that he is postponing two campaign events after a family member tested positive for COVID-19.

Miller is running for place 7 on the Stephenville ISD board of trustees.

“The timing is terrible, but we have to quarantine for two weeks,” Miller said.

He said he plans to reschedule the two meet-and-greets he had planned to host on Oct. 8 and Oct. 13.

Miller, 39, graduated from Stephenville High School in 1999 and Tarleton State University in 2003 with a degree in business.

He is a financial advisor with Edward Jones.

“I’m at a place in my life and in my career where I am afforded the opportunity to give back. I hope to make a positive impact on the future of our amazing community, and I believe that starts with our children,” he said. “That is why I am running for school board. I would be humbled to have your vote in the upcoming election.”
