Treasurer

As Treasurer and Chief Financial Officer, my primary responsibility — and that of our entire department — is to ensure every dollar entrusted to the school district is managed with integrity, transparency, and strategic vision. We take great pride in serving as careful stewards of public funds, aligning our fiscal management directly with our District’s mission to provide an exceptional educational experience for our students.

Whether you are a community member reviewing our financial forecast, a staff member with a payroll or benefit question, or a partner vendor, our team is here to support you. We are dedicated to open communication and keeping our taxpayers fully informed about the financial health and future of our schools.

Thank you for your continued partnership and support of Bellbrook-Sugarcreek Local Schools.

Warm regards,

Amit Gautam
