Effective, meaningful communications in a school district is not something of random chance. Instead, for an organization to be effective at communications, it must be done in a comprehensive, strategic, year-round manner. For schools, this is accomplished best when aligned with the school system’s goals. However, this can be a lot harder to accomplish than it sounds. For the team at Park Hill School District in Kansas City, Missouri, it has taken some time to accomplish, but their work and commitment to strategic communications using research, planning, implementation, and evaluation is helping them stay focused on what matters most in their organization. In this episode, Nicole Kirby, APR, (Director of Communications) shares how her team works hard to stay focused on their annual communications plan. Consider this episode a “workshop” of sorts to give you the basics of how to streamline your processes and to create systems to advance a thoughtful approach to school communications. We are also joined by members of Nicole’s team, including Samantha Fitzgerald (Communications Specialist), Matthew Kenright (Communications Specialist), and Paul Lewis (Video Technology Specialist). They provide tips and advice for how other schools can effectively build a strategic communications program to be proud of.
