Appointed Butler school board member resigns

BUTLER TWP — The Butler Area School District school board accepted the resignation of board member Regenold Griffin at a meeting Monday night, April 24, effective immediately.

The board also passed an update to its random drug test policy, which now says students who have a second and third drug offense within a six-year period will receive a 14-day suspension from sports and activities and lose parking privileges.

The board appointed Griffin in July 2022 to fill the unexpired term of Tom Harrison, who resigned in May 2022. Brian White, district superintendent, said Griffin indicated to him that he was resigning for personal reasons.

The remaining eight board members talked about how they planned to replace Griffin, whose term runs until the end of the year. Board member John Conrad suggested that with the May 16 primary election approaching, the board should wait until its results come in and appoint the newcomer who earns the most votes.
