Local treasurer selected for Columbus job

By Megan Gildow | Tuesday, March 31, 2009, 01:30 PM

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.
