Partners
The Partners in Education program links businesses and organizations with schools to share resources, both in people and materials. Each flourishes from the support and prosperity of the other. Schools must prepare today's students for their entry into a diverse, competitive work force. When businesses take part in the education of these young people, they help strengthen the work force of the future. The Partners in Education program is vital in helping the community and the school system work and grow together.
The key to a successful partnership is finding where a school's needs and the resources of a business intersect so they can be implemented in a mutually beneficial manner. Businesses can partner with an individual school, multiple schools or, for some businesses, with the entire district. School-wide partnerships must be able to support meaningful activities at a school level or everyone related to the school, including parents and students, staff, teacher and administration.
We define a partnership as at least three activities throughout the school year, which we feel is the minimum for a partner relationship. The partnership activities must fulfill a need of the school, as determined by the Principal and the School's Partners in Education Coordinator.
The general requirements are simple:
The partnership needs to provide a benefit to our School, and be mutually beneficial to the business through cause-related marketing not advertising, such as
Acknowledgement in school promotion materials, social media, newsletters and press releases
