Local treasurer selected for Columbus job
Springfield Treasurer Penny Rucker has been selected as treasurer of Columbus Public Schools, Ohio’s largest school district, the Columbus Dispatch reports.
Rucker and the board will enter negotiations to strike a formal deal before the offer is complete.
Rucker is the second consecutive Springfield treasurer to go to Columbus — her predecessor, Michael Kinneer, was also hired by Columbus until he left for Fort Lauderdale last year.
Springfield is winding down a superintendent search right now and then will launch a national search for a campus director at the high school. Looks like a treasurer search will be in the works too now.
Look for more details in tomorrow’s paper.

Student injured in industrial tech class at NWHS
Emergency squads have reported to Northwestern High School at about noon Tuesday, March 31, where a student injured himself in industrial technology, Superintendent Tony Orr confirmed.
The student was using a saw, he said.
“I don’t know what kind of saw the student was using, I don’t know the extent of his injuries,” said Orr.
The school placed a call to authorities just before noon when the injury occurred, according to scanner traffic. Orr said he will have more information later.
