Communications That Protect and Promote Educational Institutions
From campus safety alerts to enrollment marketing, educational institutions need communication strategies that protect their communities and grow their student bodies. Bold Thinkers Group provides crisis communications, PIO training, and digital strategy built for K-12 and higher education.
The Communication Challenges Education Faces
Educational institutions must balance safety, transparency, parent expectations, and competitive enrollment pressures — all while operating with limited budgets and staff. Public schools also face many of the same challenges as government agencies.
Campus Safety Communications
Active threat situations, lockdowns, and safety incidents require instant, coordinated communications to parents, staff, students, media, and law enforcement. Delays cost trust — and can cost lives.
School Board Crises
Policy controversies, personnel issues, budget disputes, and community backlash can spiral quickly when school boards lack clear communication strategies. Social media amplifies every misstep.
Parent & Community Engagement
Schools struggle to maintain meaningful parent engagement beyond one-way newsletters. Low engagement leads to distrust, surprise reactions to decisions, and declining community support.
Enrollment Marketing
In an era of school choice, charter schools, and declining birth rates, schools that fail to market effectively see enrollment drop. Most school websites do not convert prospective families into applications.
