(BROWNSTOWN) - Brownstown Central Community School Corp. has named 39-year-old Jade Peters as Interim School Superintendent.
He is currently the corporation's business manager.
The board of trustees unanimously approved Peters becoming interim superintendent during Tuesday's meeting at the superintendent's office.
Jade will fill in after Superintendent Greg Walker recently announced he was resigning to become superintendent of Paoli Community School Corp. He starts in that position on Oct. 1.
Peters told the Seymour Tribune the superintendent position will be posted this week. He declined to say whether he plans to apply.
The new superintendent will stop either Jan. 1 or July 1 depending on how the hiring process goes.
Peters, a 1997 Brownstown Central High School graduate, earned bachelor's degrees in math and education and a minor in computer science from Franklin College in 2002. He also played football in college all four years.
He taught at East Central High School from 2002 to 2004 before teaching at Brownstown Central Middle School for five years and then moving to the high school. He also helped coach football and girls basketball at the high school.
He earned his master's degree in education from Olivet Nazarene University in 2008 and his administrator license from Indiana State University in 2010.
Since graduating from high school, he also has operated his own business, A+ Outdoor Services.
Peters has been the business manager since July 1, 2016. In that role, he has worked closely with Walker.
Harry Rochner, the corporation's previous business manager, is going to fill in to take on some of Peters' day-to-day business manager duties.
