Zeeland Record
Zeeland Board of Education President Rick Dernberger was re-elected to serve another six-year term on the Ottawa Area Intermediate School District Board of Education last week.
Dernberger was chosen by delegates from 10 of the 11 public school district boards of educa-tion within the OAISD to serve a term that will expire June 30, 2031. He recently became presi-dent of the Zeeland school board after April DeWitt resigned her office.
Jenison resident Jennifer Cymbola was also elected to a full six-year term on the OAISD board, while John Siemion of Grand Haven was elected to a partial term that expires June 30, 2027. Siemion will fill the seat that had been held by former Zeeland school board member Carol Slagh, who resigned from the OAISD board at the end of March.
“The new board members bring a wealth of experience, passion, and strong commitment to education that will contribute to our educational community's continued growth and success,” OAISD Board President Randy Schipper said.
Dernberger and Siemion received votes from all 10 representing local district boards of educa-tion. Seven local districts voted for Cymbola, and three districts voted for Amanda Price of West Ottawa.
The OAISD collaborates with local schools and communities to support the educational needs of individuals from birth through all ages in the Ottawa region. By pooling resources and deliv-ering services on a regional scale, Ottawa Area ISD efficiently provides essential programs and services to local K-12 public, charter, and parochial schools, as well as to families and adult learners, ensuring these offerings are both comprehensive and cost-effective.
