January is School Board Recognition Month. This is a time to recognize the individuals who approach their volunteer work like it is a full-time job and with extraordinary dedication to our school district. They are citizens whose decisions affect our children and build our community.
School boards are charged with making decisions that can sometimes be quite difficult or require sifting through a great deal of information. They contribute many hours each year leading Pentwater Public Schools.
Collectively, school board members across the state spend more than 7,500 hours on professional development to keep well-informed of the latest trends in educational leadership, are deeply involved in community activities and spend many hours at extracurricular events.
This month, we encourage all members of the community to thank a board member. Take this opportunity to show our year-round appreciation for these servant leaders and begin to better understand how local trustees work together to prepare today's students to be tomorrow's leaders.
The men and women serving Pentwater Public Schools are:
Mark Shotwell - President (serving since 2021) Amy Baker- Vice President (serving since 2025) Adam Lamb - Secretary (serving since 2023) Kelsey Prescott - Treasurer (serving since 2022) Dr. Vaughn Thurston-Cox - Trustee (serving since 2023) Laura Nugent - Trustee (serving since 2021) Ryan Williams - Trustee (serving since 2023)
We thank them for their service as well as thanking the many men and women in our community who have partnered with us in this significant task throughout the years! The staff honored and thanked our board members at our 1/19/26 board meeting with a handmade card signed by students as well as delicious cookies!
Respectfully, Craig Barter, Superintendent
