"A trusting relationship between SBOs and #schoolPR pros is a must for strategic financial communications." - NSPRA Associate Director Mellissa Braham, APR, who attended the ASBO International annual conference last week.
Just spent a delightful few days with school business officials at the ASBO International annual conference, presenting "Numbers With Heart: How to Tell a Better School Finance Story" and sharing resources and tips at the National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA) booth. A trusting relationship between SBOs and #schoolPR pros is a must for strategic financial communications! Loved hearing from closing reception speaker and 2024 National Teacher of the Year Missy Testerman; she brought joy to the whole room! And ASBO and its chapters have an amazing conference pin game!
