Community Relations

The Community Relations department helps connect the community to the impact that our #265Family makes every day in Goddard Public Schools. By crafting and communicating stories that highlight the staff and students of Goddard, this team helps manage and engage audiences across the district. They partner with local organizations to help fulfill the mission of USD 265, and coordinate social media and website maintenance year-round. Additionally these staff members manage the communication and marketing efforts for the entire district, including the creation of print materials, videos and photography. The goals of the Community Relations team are as follows:

  • Develop Ambassadors for Public Education

  • Tell Our Story of Pride, Growth, and Excellence

  • Support the Effective and Efficient Use of Resources

  • Develop Plans for Growth

  • Be Prepared to Coordinate Timely and Accurate Crisis Communications
