The Clark County Public Schools is joining with other communities throughout Kentucky to honor its elected school board members during School Board Member Appreciation Month.  We recognize that our volunteer school board members are providing leadership, through responsibilities ranging from strong financial stewardship to ensuring high-quality curriculum, to making sure all students are prepared to take on the world when they graduate.

Serving on the local school board are: Judy Hicks, Board Chair, Debbie Fatkin, Vice-Chair, Dr. Michael Kuduk, William “BJ” Swope and Deanna Wolfe.

“These men and women volunteer countless hours of unpaid time to provide the best possible education for our students, and we want to recognize that in this community. As your elected leaders, they represent you in their continuing commitment to local citizen control and decision-making for our public schools.  Too often the efforts of school board members go unrecognized and unrewarded, so let us take this opportunity to thank them for their service.

Even though we are making a special effort in January to show appreciation for our school board members, we recognize their contributions reflect a year-long effort on their part. They are dedicated individuals who are committed to improving student achievement and to striving for the best for all our students.

Thank you Clark County Board of Education for your service.
