3 Steps To Building Your School's Brand Through Your Website
For schools, the longevity, location and word-of-mouth reviews can be what makes a school stand out over its competition. But while some school districts have location and reputation on its side, some areas have multiple districts for parents and/or guardians to choose from, and they may or may not select yours. Before a potential member of your school’s community even decides what they would like to do, however, using digital marketing efforts can turn potential students into confirmed ones. This can be done with multiple tools within your SchoolPointe CMS.

Video marketing is on the rise and can be a great way for schools to brand themselves outside of their district.

How To Utilize Your Website During The Summer
Summertime is finally here! For many schools, the beginning of summer means the beginning of relaxation, vacation and not worrying about anything until school starts back in the fall. While this is certainly necessary to do, many school professionals would consider this season just as or even more hectic than during the school year. Many professionals from teachers, faculty members, specialized instructional support personnel, and education support professionals spend most of their summer planning ahead for fall. Many schools also have maintenance staff that works almost 10-hour days to make sure schools are still in great condition during summer school and when school opens back up for the new year. As a SchoolPointe partner, there are a plethora of ways that you can stay up-to-date with your administrative and maintenance tasks throughout the summer.

How To Receive Positive Online Reviews For Your School
It is a common fact that many schools don’t know where they stand with their community. While word of mouth and social media can possibly help, many reviews may be beyond your control. By doing a quick Google search, you can see what people are saying about your district through Google reviews, Yelp or even Reddit. You can’t always control what is being said about your school, but you can create content that will give you a better chance of having more positive reviews. The following steps will help to promote positive reviews for your school from the parents and other influencers who matter.

While a stunning design will attract your school’s audience initially, the content you create for the website will keep them coming back. Your website can do much more than serving as a directory hub for students, parents and many others in your school’s community. The web content on your site can also be used as a way to engage with your audience and increase more traffic at your school.
