💯FACTS!!!!

🤩This afternoon’s kickoff of the APR Cohort was a push I needed! So ready to take this next phase on! Thank you, NSPRA @EdPRMack Tove Tupper, APR @TomsTravels! 🙌🏾 #SchoolPR #ItTakesAPRo

🙌🏾Excellent NSPRA webinar today on institutionalizing & internalizing equity efforts! Takeaways: Have honest conversations; be proactive, not reactive; highlight success stories; have a lifelong learner mentality; plan out comms; strategic approach. #SchoolPR

Timing is key in PR. Plan ahead and strategically align your campaigns with seasonal opportunities to ensure you’re part of the conversation when interest is peaking.

The psychology of PR extends to crisis management. During a crisis, people seek trust, stability, and empathy. Addressing these psychological needs in your response can turn a crisis into an opportunity for brand strengthening.

If you want things to change, work to change them. Don’t wait on others to do it, don’t say it’s somebody else’s job, don’t make excuses. Show up, where you are, on purpose. Be the change.

Each day of school, we get to make a deposit into the memory banks of children. Relationships matter. Positive moments matter. Schools exist for KIDS. Love them hard! #multiplyexcellence

For all that is holy in PR, don’t spray and pray. You’re giving PR pros a bad rep & journalists a headache. Instead, show you took the time to personalize your email: 1. Explain why you’re reaching out 2. Show why the story is a good fit 3. Provide multiple sources (if possible)

🙌🏾Super pumped for this one! #SchoolPR

If you stop learning, you stop leading. The more intentional you are about your leadership growth, the greater your potential for becoming the leader you’re capable of being. To be effective, leaders must always be learners!

🗓️ NSPRA members, save the date for the next #k12PRchat on Tues., June 25. 💻 Register to join your #schoolPR colleagues on Zoom for a preview of #NSPRA2024. Let us know what you're looking forward to, sessions you're planning to attend and more! bit.ly/4cpS6Ze

Please don’t forget that just because you think of someone as always being strong, that doesn’t mean they couldn’t use a check in and some support. 🫶🏽

Loving what Chesapeake Schools has to share, so helpful no matter how long you've been in #schoolpr. Check their Google doc w/ templates & samples for their overall communications systems. Will be using in my large district! #NSPRA2024 Monica Agudelo Rachel Haywood drive.google.com/file/d/1sg1Vaa…

PR is like chess. If you want to win, you need to be thinking at least three steps ahead of breaking news to land pitches.
