RESOURCES FOR SCHOOL COMMUNICATORS

The Creative Media team leads district communications. The team supports school communicators and NRGizer teams, but can't design every school flyer or draft every family communications email. School NRGizers lead local school communications and storytelling. To assist them in their roles, there are a number of resources available through the district.

VIDEO PRODUCTION: WeVideo.com offers free video editing. The district also has a district-wide license for premium services through the site.

SOCIAL MEDIA & ONE-PAGER DESIGN: Canva and Gipper offer free communications design solutions

PHOTO EDITING: Pixlr is an online photo editing site ideal for novice users. It also offers animation and design resources.

ICONS: The Noun Project is a good site for free icons and stock photos.
