Your school is full of remarkable stories that deserve to be shared—but without a dedicated communications team, managing social media can feel like an impossible task.

That’s why we created SPARK, an award-winning social media system designed specifically for schools. (without PR staff). SPARK is classroom-tested to work seamlessly with your school’s busy schedule. We take care of the heavy-lifting, empowering your staff to share authentic stories that connect with your community—all without adding to your already full plate.

SPARK doesn’t just manage your social media—it ignites it.

Why Choose SPARK?

Classroom-tested and designed with educators in mind, SPARK makes it easy for teachers and staff to share meaningful moments, creating posts that build trust, inspire pride, and connect with your community.

One superintendent shared how their district’s limited budget couldn’t support a full-time communications role. With SPARK, they empowered 175 staff members to become part of the PR team, capturing and sharing stories that resonated deeply with their community.

By equipping your staff with the tools, training, and guidance they need, SPARK turns the people closest to your students into storytellers. This collaborative approach ensures your school’s story is told authentically, consistently, and in a way that strengthens connections across your entire community.
