Treasurer
As a dependent of military parents, Christopher Fox grew up in Riverside and graduated from Walter E. Stebbins High School in 2003. He went on to earn his bachelor’s degree in finance from Wright State University.
Mr. Fox began his career in public education as the Assistant Treasurer at the Montgomery County Educational Service Center (ESC) and later served in the same role at Huber Heights City Schools. In 2015, he returned to the Montgomery County ESC as Treasurer/CFO, where he served until joining Mad River Local Schools.
Throughout his tenure, Mr. Fox has been actively involved in numerous professional boards and committees, including serving as President of the Ohio ESC Treasurers Association, a member of the Ohio ESC Association Executive Committee, the Southwest Ohio EPC Benefits Committee, and the Board of Directors of the Ohio School Plan.
What's involved in running the business of a school district? Well, aside from the obvious daily task of teachers educating more than 3,700 students (which, by the way, is no small task), we are a $60 million revenue per year company with over 500 employees. We also operate a Career Technology School within Stebbins High School, transportation service with 29 school buses hauling thousands of riders a day, a food service operation serving over 2,900 meals a day in 8 locations, a sports complex with multiple ball fields and gyms, a technology support division maintaining over 3000 computers, and a property maintenance division maintaining $95 million in property at 12 buildings and over 500 acres of property. It would not be possible to accomplish all these activities daily without excellent management from all our Department Heads and their staff who work here at Mad River School District.
The Treasurer also serves as the "Corporate Secretary" to the Board of Education. In this role, all contracts, documents, and the official minutes of all Board meetings are kept for safekeeping. Board minutes are public records and are available for review on the Board of Education page of this website.
