Luverne grad hired as school business manager

Luverne High School graduate Tyler Reisch has been hired as Luverne School District’s new business manager, starting Aug. 30.
Reisch, currently the Pipestone County auditor-treasurer, was one of seven candidates interviewed for the position recently held by former business manager Marlene Mann, who retired July 31.
“The pool of candidates was very strong,” said Superintendent Craig Oftedahl.
Reisch’s salary will be $83,500.
He graduated from Luverne in 2007 and from North Dakota State University in Fargo in 2012. He began as Pipestone County auditor in 2013.
“I am looking forward to moving back to the community I was born and raised in and working in a school I attended,” he said.
Reisch’s parents, Terry Reisch and Janet Reisch, live in Luverne. His sister, Ashley Kurtz, is Rock County’s auditor-treasurer.
While administrators are charged by school board members to post open positions immediately and hire personnel in a timely manner, the board will take formal action on the administrator’s suggestion at the Aug. 26 school board meeting.
