The School District of River Falls (SDRF) was recently honored by the Wisconsin School Public Relations Association (WSPRA) with three Spectrum Awards for its work in school communications.

WSPRA presented the Spectrum Awards at its annual conference held Nov. 8-10. SDRF earned an Award of Excellence in the category of Newsletter/Newspaper/Magazine for Annual Community Newsletter; as well as two Awards of Merit in Marketing/Advertising Material for Strategic Plan and Fast Facts.

Spectrum Awards recognize high-quality public relations efforts produced by or on behalf of Wisconsin school districts. This year, this statewide competition honored over 59 school districts and CESAs with awards.

"The projects from the Spectrum Award winners show how important it is to communicate well in schools and connect with the community. They represent some of the best work being done in schools throughout the state," said Joelle Doye, current President of WSPRA from the Mineral Point School District.

WSPRA’s Spectrum Awards were judged by members of other school public relations associations in 20 different states, from New York to California.

The Wisconsin School Public Relations Association (WSPRA) is a professional association representing schools, school districts, educational associations, consulting agencies and organizations.

WSPRA is a state affiliate of the National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA). The mission of WSPRA is to expand the capacity of its members to provide effective communication management for the purpose of strengthening educational opportunities for all students.

The School District of River Falls strives to inspire all students through challenging, meaningful, and engaging learning experiences, in a safe and collaborative environment.
