CULLMAN, Ala. – The Cullman County Board of Education (CCBOE) at a special-called meeting on Wednesday approved a request to hire Suzy Berryman as chief school financial officer (CSFO), effective March 1, 2023. Berryman is currently the CSFO in the Lawrence County School District, where she has worked since 2014.
In addition to serving as CSFO in Lawrence County for nine years, Berryman has worked as an account examiner and audit manager for the State of Alabama Examiner of Public Accounts. She replaces current CCBOE CSFO Ed Roberson, who will continue to work with Berryman during a 30-day transition period.
“Suzy Berryman has extensive experience in school finance, both in a school system and at the
state level,” said Cullman County Schools Superintendent Dr. Shane Barnette. “As chief school financial officer of Cullman County Schools, she will be managing the finances of one of the largest school systems in the state. Our system is fiscally strong, and I am excited that Mrs. Berryman is joining our team. I am confident she will be able to build on our foundation of success and help us continue to provide the best educational experience possible.”
“I would like to thank the board and Dr. Barnette for this opportunity,” said Berryman.
“I’m proud to be able to join this team and look forward to working with Cullman County
Schools.”
