People’s Electric Cooperative (PEC), a member-owned electric distribution cooperative, recently announced the appointment of Matt Holder to its Board of Trustees.
“The addition of Mr. Holder to PEC’s Board ensures our company will continue to benefit from a diversity of knowledge and background.

Holder is the superintendent at Springer Schools. He also was the principal at Sulphur Intermediate School, assistant principal at Elmore City, and a teacher and coach at Purcell High School.
A native of Pauls Valley, Holder earned both a bachelor’s and master’s degree from East Central University in Ada.
