NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — MountainOne has promoted Jonathan Denmark, a Pittsfield resident, to executive vice president of MountainOne Bank.
 
In addition to his new leadership responsibilities, Denmark will continue to serve as president and chief operating officer of MountainOne Insurance Agency.
 
Denmark will celebrate 10 years with MountainOne in March. Early in his tenure as president and COO of MountainOne Insurance, he led the consolidation of MountainOne's Insurance agencies — True North Insurance and Coakley, Pierpan, Dolan, and Collins — and oversaw the rebranding of the combined agencies to MountainOne Insurance. His efforts also established a strong partnership with OneDigital for the agency's group benefits business line. Under his leadership, MountainOne Insurance has continued to expand, acquiring three agencies, opening a new office in Stockbridge, and expanding the agency's presence to the Pioneer Valley. 
 
"It is a true privilege to announce Jonathan's promotion to Executive Vice President," said Robert Fraser, president & CEO of MountainOne Bank. "Over the past decade, Jonathan has consistently demonstrated visionary leadership and a deep commitment to MountainOne's mission. His ability to drive growth, foster innovation, and inspire collaboration has been instrumental to our success. This appointment reflects our confidence in his ability to guide MountainOne toward even greater achievements."
 
Officials say Denmark's growth strategy, coupled with his deep expertise and unwavering dedication, have positioned the agency as a core contributor to MountainOne's overall success.
 
He is highly regarded within both the insurance industry as well as the local community and recently assumed the role of Board Chair of the Pittsfield Economic Development Authority, which oversees the William Stanley Business Park. The park, home to the MountainOne building at Silver Lake and the Berkshire Innovation Center, is poised for significant development in the coming years. Denmark's leadership at PEDA will further align economic growth opportunities with community development in Pittsfield and beyond.
 
"I am deeply honored to step into the role of executive vice president at MountainOne Bank," said Denmark. "As we look ahead, I remain dedicated to advancing MountainOne's mission of delivering meaningful solutions that create lasting value for our customers, employees, and communities."

NORTH ADAMS, Mass. — The Superintendent's Award has been presented to Landon LeClair, a senior in McCann Technical School's advanced manufacturing course. 
 
The presentation was made last Thursday by Superintendent Jame Brosnan after Principal Justin Kratz read from teachers' letters extolling LeClair's school work, leadership and dedication. 
 
"He's become somewhat legendary at the Fall State Leadership Conference for trying to be a leader at his dinner table, getting an entire plate of cookies for him and all his friends," read Kratz to chuckles from the School Committee. "Landon was always a dedicated student and a quiet leader who cared about mastering the content."
 
LeClair was also recognized for his participation on the school's golf team and for mentoring younger teammates. 
 
"Landon jumped in tutoring the student so thoroughly that the freshman was able to demonstrate proficiency on an assessment despite the missed class time for golf matches," read Kratz.
 
The principal noted that the school also received feedback from LeClair's co-op employer, who rated him with all fours.
 
"This week, we sent Landon to our other machine shop to help load and run parts in the CNC mill," his employer wrote to the school. LeClair was so competent the supervisor advised the central shop might not get him back.
