Dustin Tate is the School Board President. Mr. Tate grew up going to the First Baptist Church of Ninnekah, which he is still a member of today, and he grew up living in the Ninnekah area. His grandfather was a board member whilst his dad was attending Ninnekah. He has three children who attend Ninnekah Schools. He joined the board because he wanted to give back to the community that has given him so much. During his time on the board he has no specific agenda but to make the best decisions for the students as possible. He believes that Board members should put the students first, district second, & staff 3rd, and professional before personal. He believes that curriculum, extracurricular activities, maintenance, & finance are all important. He believes that right now curriculum is more important than ever due to the loss in education on account of the Covid gap. What he loves most about Ninnekah Schools is supporting and interacting with the students as well as supporting students' growth and well being.

Mr. Perryman has recently joined the Board of Ninnekah Public Schools. His children attend Ninnekah Schools and so when he saw that there was a chance for him to become more involved, he sought out the position. In addition to being on the School Board, he represents District No. 7 on the Water Board on which he serves as President. During his term he would like to create a good, safe, learning environment at Ninnekah Schools. He prioritizes safety, curriculum, and more student involvement in extracurricular activities. What he appreciates the most about Ninnekah Schools is the people and the way they all work together towards a common goal.

Mrs. Carrol is very involved in the school helping out at the Christmas store every year. She chose to run as a board member because she truly cares for all the students and teachers at Ninnekah Schools, and she wants to do the best she can. She is involved in the Chickasha food pantry but it still helps the Ninnekah community. When she is needed in any area at Ninnekah she will be glad to help. The main thing she wants to accomplish for the school is for the community to work together towards the betterment of our students' education. She also believes that the students at Ninnekah should have a safe learning environment, and always know they can talk to their teachers and staff comfortably. Mrs. Carrol believes that the main facet that needs improvement is the communication between the community, parents, and school staff. The thing she loves the most about Ninnekah Public Schools is the fact that the kids will make sure to do what's best for them.

 Mrs. Berry is a passionate member of our school board. She joined the board in hopes of bringing new ideas and opportunities to Ninnekah Schools. One of her main priorities she would like to apply would be to really make students aware of options for their future. She recognizes that not all kids will be going to college and we should make them aware of what their other options are after they leave high school. Mrs. Berry also volunteers in our school's FFA and is a member of the Ninnekah Baptist church. She believes strongly that the kids are the future of our community and we should support them as much as we can. She loves the community and the community feel of Ninnekah and wants others to get involved in supporting not just the community but Ninnekah school as well.

I am a 2004 graduate of Ninnekah and have lived in the Ninnekah area most of my life. I am a 3rd generation owner and operator of a small oilfield maintenance company called CTM that my grandpa founded in 1982. I have a 16 year old daughter named Kadence and a 5 year old son named Ellis. I enjoy spending time with them and my awesome wife Erin. We fish a lot at lake Burtschi and go for cruises around town in my classic cars. We also spend time in the Kiamichi mountains riding around in our jeep and enjoying nature. I love to play guitar and sing when I have time but my favirite hobby is photography/videography. I love taking photos and making short films/music videos. As a board member, my favorite thing is making trips to the school and engaging with the kids and faculty. It’s very important to me to hear their opinions and make sure that their voices are heard and their suggestions are brought to the table and resolved.
