COLUMBUS, Ind. - The Bartholomew Consolidated School Foundation (BCSF) recently announced Courtney Rushton as its new Executive Director.

Rushton's journey has come full circle, from serving Bartholomew Consolidated School Corporation (BCSC) students as an elementary educator to leading innovative nonprofit programs that strengthen the community.

Now, she's helping advance the Foundation's mission of supporting BCSC teachers and students through grants, scholarships, and community partnerships.

"In many ways, this move feels like a homecoming," Courtney said. "I'm incredibly honored to support the BCSC community that has given so much to my family and me."
