The former executive director of a western Pennsylvania Intermediate Unit has been charged with fraudulently using company credit cards for personal use. The Associated Press reports that Grove City police charged 55-year-old Cecelia H. Yauger last week. Yauger resigned in April after an administrative leave from the Grove City organization, which provides services to about 27 school districts in Mercer, Lawrence and Butler counties. In her resignation agreement, Yauger agreed to repay what the organization determines she owes.
