HALIFAX COUNTY, Va. (WSET) — The newly appointed director of finance for Halifax County has now resigned from the post, citing comments that she believes are questioning her integrity.
On Monday, supervisors named the school system’s finance director, Dr. Karen Bucklew, to also serve as the county’s interim finance director.

In her resignation letter, Bucklew cites public comments from members of the board and to the media regarding whether serving both entities is a conflict of interest.
The letter lays out her professional and ethical standards, and said the comments have eroded the professional working environment, so she will remain as the school’s finance director only.
