Northwestern Treasurer
Dear Northwestern Community,
It is an honor to serve as Treasurer for Northwestern Local Schools. I am fully committed to supporting the students, staff, and families who make this community so special. My goal is to ensure that every financial decision we make supports the district’s mission of providing a high-quality education and opportunities for all Huskies.
As Treasurer, I am responsible for managing the district’s finances with accuracy, transparency, and integrity. This includes overseeing the budgeting process, financial reporting, payroll, and long-term financial planning. My work focuses on being a good steward of taxpayer dollars while making sure our schools have the resources they need to operate effectively and provide students with excellent educational experiences.
I believe that strong financial management is one of the keys to a thriving school district, and I take seriously the trust placed in me to protect and allocate our resources wisely. By working closely with the Board of Education, administration, and community, I strive to keep Northwestern on a path of fiscal stability and success for years to come.
Thank you for visiting my page. I look forward to continuing to serve the Northwestern community and supporting the future of our schools.
Sincerely,
Jerry Buccilla
Treasurer
