For educational administration and leadership students studying school and community relations. A contemporary and practice-based school public relations text that centers on the importance of communication, relationships, and technology. Outfitting students with a wealth of practical, practice-based knowledge that they can take directly into the halls of their school, the new fifth edition of Public Relations in Schools has a fresh, contemporary focus on both how administrators can effectively communicate with the community and how building strong relationships with stakeholders can ultimately lead to overall school improvement. Through a blend of theoretical and tacit knowledge, this text offers students an in-depth guide to 1) how to successfully communicate with both internal and external school entities, 2) how to build and maintain positive and active relationships via social and political capital and 3) how to translate the value of these relationships into positive change within the school. While exploring these three central themes, the book emphasizes how new technologies can aid school success. At the same time, real-world case studies at the beginning of each chapter introduce readers to actual public relations issues and bring the material to life. The revised fifth edition of Public Relations in Schools is updated with new materials and references throughout the text, including two new chapters -- one on harnessing technology for your public relations needs and one on collecting, assessing, and applying public opinion. In addition, the new fifth edition text contains a matrix at the front of the book showing how content relates to ELCC/NCATE Standards ---- the widely used criteria for administrator preparation and licensing.

The American public school system is the biggest business in the world. Too frequently the schools are still thought of as 'the little red schoolhouse' and are marketed to their many and varied clients as such. This book provides a method by which students of teaching and learning, school board members, superintendents of schools, school principals, state and federal lawmakers, educational agencies at all levels might use some of the private sector ideas to effectively and efficiently market their products to the right 'consumers.' Holcomb discusses education as a product as well as a service. It can be measured, evaluated, weighed, verbalized, packaged...and marketed. Used here, 'marketing' is simply the exchange of money, goods, or services for other money, goods, or services. With his extensive experience in educational services, the author offers much to help the public school system.

Schools today are experiencing pressures that have never been faced before. Very often members of the public do not know how their schools are doing, and as a result voters respond negatively. In Promoting Your School: A Public Relations Handbook, Irene Lober clearly describes various processes, methods, and actions that schools can take to better disseminate their message to their district. By focusing on public relations and sharing information about school performance, districts can have a better sense of what is working and as a result support their schools better.
