School Business Official

Greenville Central School District — Where Everyone Learns, Teaches, and Belongs.

Are you a visionary financial leader looking to make a meaningful, tangible impact on a thriving school community? Greenville Central School District is seeking a dynamic and collaborative School Business Official (SBO) to serve as a key strategic partner to the Superintendent and the Board of Education.

Nestled perfectly between the historic Hudson River, the spectacular Catskill Mountains, and the Capital Region's growing Tech Valley, Greenville offers the ideal blend of a tight-knit, supportive rural community with easy access to cultural and professional hubs. Serving approximately 1,100 students across a modern PK-12 campus, our district stands out because of our unwavering commitment to our three pillars: Curriculum, Culture, and Community.

Why This Role Stands Out:

As our SBO, you aren’t just managing a spreadsheet; you are directly fueling the resources that enable our students to thrive. In Greenville, your financial leadership will directly empower:

• Curriculum Innovation: Sustaining investments in aligned learning experiences, instructional coaching, and robust academic programs like our Bookworms curriculum.
• Culture & Wellness: Safeguarding resources that support student wellness, Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS), and community-based mental health/substance prevention partnerships.
• Community Trust: Championing transparent, collaborative fiscal management that strengthens trust and partnership with our families and caregivers.

Key Responsibilities:

• Strategic Fiscal Leadership: Develop and administer the district’s annual budget, ensuring strict alignment with our academic and operational goals.
• NYS Compliance & Operations: Oversee all business office operations, including accounting, payroll, purchasing, state aid tracking, and long-range capital planning, adhering fully to NYS Education Department regulations and OSC guidelines.
• Operational Oversight: Provide leadership and fiscal guidance for critical non-instructional operations, ensuring excellent standards across facilities, transportation, and food services.
• Collaborative Communication: Present clear, accessible financial data to the Board of Education and the public, building strong community backing for district initiatives.
