Bremen Room
Adopting a new communications platform in your district can be daunting – what do you need to do to prepare? How can you ensure it helps to improve communications? How do you train staff and get them onboard? Please join district leaders as they share their experiences switching to a new communications tool. They’ll discuss onboarding, roll out, training, and how they’ve used their communications tools to improve family engagement across their districts. Plus, we will share more about how ParentSquare and Skyward’s partnership helps to improve the way schools connect and engage with students and parents.Attendees will leave with real-life examples and strategies to help ensure smooth roll out of communications tools in their districts.
