Official to leave school district
BUTLER TWP — The Butler School District’s director of business services plans to leave the district for another job.
Debbie Brandstetter informed the administration of her plans Tuesday afternoon, said William Pettigrew, acting superintendent.
Brandstetter will stay with the district until mid-May while the administration continues to work on an operating budget to propose for school board approval next month, Pettigrew said.
In an interview, Brandstetter said she accepted a position with the Riverside, Beaver County, School District.
She has worked for the Butler district since 2014 and was business manager for the South Butler County district from 2006 to 2014. A graduate of Pine-Richland High School she had previously held several private-sector jobs.
Her time with Butler included helping the district go through its consolidation plan in 2015 when it closed five elementary schools and realigned the grades among the remaining school buildings.
She said the administration will present the 2017-18 budget to the school board on May 8 and she will stay on until May 11 to help with any budget adjustments.
