SchoolAdvancement(SM): Helping Schools Advance Toward Their Vision Through Growth

 

Cell Phones Keep You In Contact

      Summer is when most parents with small children that change jobs do so.  If they can delay a job relocation until the summer when school is out, it makes for an easier transition.  Fiscal years end at the end of June, so most companies will want their employees to start fresh on July 1.  Relocated parents look for schools around this time as well.  Is your school's office running a full speed around this time, so that prospective new parents will be able to meet with principals for a tour of the school?

     If your answer is anything less than a resounding "yes," you might want to consider purchasing a rechargeable cell phone that the principal can carry with him or her.  This number can be used on collateral that are produced for use during the summer.  This is the ONLY thing that this number is used for.  That way, when the phone rings, the principal knows this is a prospective parent...and that's a phone call no one wants to miss.
