The Pentwater Falcons traveled to Mason County Central for a single game matchup. The Lady Falcons came out aggressive with Karina Olivarez and Aubrie Adams on early. Mandi Sayles then drove in Olivarez with a sac fly to center. Adams later scored on a wild pitch. Sadly, that was all the Falcons could score and the game was lost 17-2. However, the ladies kept it positive and great catches were made by Isabel Babbin at second, Paige Sadenwater in right, and Lauren Davis in center. The Falcons head to districts next at MCE (opponent determined at tonight's MCE vs. White Cloud game) with a game start time of 10 am.

We had a wonderful turnout at our Family Fun Night/Parent Cafe on Thursday, May 15. Parents engaged in conversations and learned how to set healthy limits on technology for their children. Kids enjoyed learning new math games and reading a new book in the Elementary Bookwalk. They received math games to take home and were also given a free copy of "How to Catch a Star", which was the book they read together at the event. Children also learned about our amazing solar system in a unique traveling planetarium. Thank you to the following people who made the event extra special: Sara Jeruzal, Justine Aultman, Phil Santellan, Brian Dotson, Meg Brown, Tracey Laaksonen, Mary Baker and James Mueller and our many Pentwater high school student volunteers.

Heather Bernard from Gift of Life Michigan recently visited Mrs. Fatura’s biology classes to discuss the crucial role of organ donation and the transplantation process. Her engaging presentation emphasized the significance of the donor registry and the profound impact it has on saving lives. Students had the unique opportunity to handle and examine human specimens, including a heart, lungs, kidneys, pancreas and liver. The discussion also covered tissue transplants, with samples of corneas, ligaments, tendons, and bone provided for examination. To deepen their understanding, students experienced what it feels like to have corneal blindness through specialized glasses. It was a very informative presentation! For more information, you can visit https://www.giftoflife.org/

Pentwater varsity softball finished up conference play this Monday in a double header against Mesick. Pentwater fell in the first game 11-6, despite out-hitting Mesick 10 to 8. Paige Sadenwater, Karina Olivarez and Mandi Sayles collected multiple hits in this game to lead the charge offensively. Karina Olivarez caught three runners stealing, as she limited Mesick's run game. Mesick's bats came alive in the second game as Pentwater struggled to limit the damage, falling into a hole in the second inning. Mandi Sayles was able to keep the hot hitting alive, hitting two sharp singles. The Falcons showed life in the bottom of the third, with hits up and down the line-up led by Emma Werkema-Grondsma, Charlie Swanger and Alazae Acevedo. The rally was not enough however as the Falcons fell 26 to 11.

Community Pride Day 2025! The weather advisory was averted and our 20th annual community pride day took place on a beautiful Friday morning under clear blue skies! Our students are required to accrue 40 community pride hours as a part of their graduation requirements and every spring we schedule a community pride day to give an opportunity to earn some of these hours. You can see PPS students around the village doing various tasks beautifying our village. You can see them at the state park, the historical museum, the VFW hall, the artisan center, the township library, the township office, the Methodist church, various village gardens (water tower, village green, Channel Lane Park, Park Place, North Park garden) as well as some private homes for lawn care assistance. Our 8th grade crew also do some work on the school grounds. The goal of our community pride day requirement is to foster a sense of pride in community!

Our Pentwater elementary students learned more about how their food is raised when they visited the Michigan Farm Bureau Food, Agriculture & Resources in Motion (FARM) Science Program. Students participated in STEM-based lessons to increase agricultural awareness, through hands-on learning. Classes learned more about careers in agriculture and science through engaging lessons, including Erosion, Insects, and Potato Power, helping them understand how agriculture impacts their daily lives so they grow into informed consumers. Thank you to our local Oceana County Farm Bureau for the generous donation to make the FARM Science Program possible for our students, along with their continued support in education.
