Dawn Bailey is out as the Knox Community School Corporation’s treasurer and business manager.
The school board officially terminated Bailey’s employment as part of its personnel report Tuesday, although the termination actually took effect last Wednesday.
In the list of 2019 appointments, the school board agreed to temporarily place Jenny Tow in the treasurer’s position, at the recommendation of Superintendent Dr. William Reichhart. “Jenny Tow has accepted this position to be the corporation treasurer in, basically, name only,” Reichhart explained. “But it’s advisable that we have a corporation treasurer during the interim, when we finally hire a new treasurer. So please insert Jenny Tow’s name there for now.”
No further explanation was given for the change. Bailey had been serving as treasurer and business manager since April of last year, following the retirement of Sherry Fort.
