Communication In Practice
From Messaging to Meaning
Every district has, or will, will be in a position to respond to a crisis. Knowing how to respond in the moment to ensure safety, clarity, and to leverage the opportunity to celebrate or recognize employees or engage students is critical, and builds trust in your community.
Dr. Poyer earned a degree in Broadcast Journalism from Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Communication. This theoretical knowledge, coupled with many years of TV News experience, has helped Dr. Poyer to be a trusted partner in school district communications.
A quiet January morning turned frantic for cafeteria employees when they discovered a scorpion while washing the bananas. Dr. Poyer collaborated with leaders and staff and ensured the scorpion made its way to the zoology class for further student study. Her communication experience resulted in a positive, viral story for the district, employees who were proud of their efforts, and an opportunity for student learning.
