Email

Email is one of the most prevalent forms of communication within and outside of the district. As our employee force and community continue to grow and we communicate with new people on a constant basis, we should consider creating a standardized, consistent email signature that clearly identifies who we are to one another and members of the public.

Standardized email signatures are common practice among many businesses. This uniform signature creates consistency among many employees, which furthers the identity of the district. It is also a staple of the professional world and should be considered part of our district branding. You wouldn’t enter a meeting without introducing yourself and (likely) your professional role; why should electronic communication be any different?

A good email signature is one that clearly states the name and title of the individual, along with their contact information. Possible options would be adding the Fire J or Dragon graphic or a short quote. Superfluous colors, fonts, graphics, or email backgrounds are distracting and should not be part of a consistent district email format.

Specifications will be provided to staff, along with instructions for setting the signature on PC and Mac computers. Electronic templates, if available, will be provided as well.
