🎉 This week, we officially opened the PCSD Employee Health Center — a new benefit providing free, convenient healthcare to employees and their covered dependents, thanks to our partnership with Marathon Health.
The ribbon cutting brought together school district staff, leadership, the insurance committee, school board members, and Marathon Health representatives. Superintendent Rick Surrency welcomed guests, and Andy Burnett and Mark Motl cut the ribbon to officially open the doors!
💙💚 The new center is a big win for our team’s health and well-being.

Our PCSD employees aren’t just “school staff,” they’re your neighbors! They are parents, grandparents, friends, and sponsors. They coach your child’s team, shop at local businesses, attend church with you, and volunteer in our neighborhoods. They understand our community because they are our community.
The start of a new school year is always a busy and sometimes stressful time, but we want to remind everyone that kindness, respect, and understanding go a long way. Our employees work every day to support our children, keep our schools running, and build a brighter future for Putnam County.
Thank you to everyone who chooses to lift others up. Together, we are stronger and we’re looking forward to making 2025–26 our best year yet. 💚💙
