Over the past few months, U.S. education has been a rollercoaster. We’ve seen leaders tasked with making impossible choices, balancing their community’s health with students’ needs, and even fighting off the virus in their own homes. Due to an inconsistent national response to COVID-19, school leaders have been forced to make polarizing choices. No matter your reopening plan, we’re sure you’ve faced criticism.
Through the whirlwind, we’ve seen your bold service: standing firm on controversial decisions, maintaining support for struggling communities, rebuilding education to meet a new era. We’ve seen your leadership, and we’re proud to feature your strength.
Now more than ever, we need one another. To keep weathering this storm, we need to come together—and public schools have always been at the center of U.S. communities.In this edition, we look at how you can leverage partnerships with local leaders within your district and beyond to make your schools stronger.
As you know, strong communities need strong leaders. Whether you are creating a supportive environment for your students like Dr. Mark Bedell, mentoring aspiring leaders in your district like Dr. Candace Singh, or creating more welcoming environments for parents like Dr. Katrise Perera, your schools—and communities—need you.
But challenging times also demand that you build relationships with leaders and influencers in the community outside your schools, from local news reporters to real estate agents. Using marketing basics as a guide, we’ll dive into strategies for building relationships with the media. We’ll also look at the booming COVID-19 housing market: who’s moving, why it matters, and how to connect with real estate agents.
Finally, we’ll share ways to support your staff—and yourself—during the stressful circumstances brought about by the pandemic. In order to lead, teachers and school administrators alike need to stay healthy, leaning on each other through the hard times.
Before we wrap up, we wanted to say that we see your hard work and dedication. While we wish schools weren’t called to support so many crucial aspects of society, you are rising to the challenge. We’re thankful for your willingness to fight for students and families.
