District 49 honors staff at ‘Fantastic 49’ and communications team reports rising engagement
Summary
District 49 recognized classroom leaders in the ‘Fantastic 49’ awards and communications staff reported increased digital engagement, the upcoming Discover D49 magazine and season 4 of the 49 Voices podcast, and successful events such as Peak View and a state-of-the-district panel.
Before the formal board session, District 49 held its 'Fantastic 49' recognition where staff honorees received plaques and sponsor gift cards. Katie Murray, a kindergarten teacher at Bennett Ranch Elementary, was recognized for inclusive classroom practices and work with students with autism; Sarah Luce, a math teacher at Vista Ridge High School, was honored for leading implementation of 'Wolf Time', a teacher-run intervention period.
Later in the meeting, David Nancarrow, director of communications, summarized fall communications metrics: a 90-day snapshot of social engagement on Facebook and Instagram, high-performing video content (including a surprise military homecoming at Meridian Ranch Elementary), the upcoming Discover D49 magazine, Veterans Day coverage, and season 4 of the district podcast. Nancarrow said a goal of communications is to increase community connection and enrollment interest.
Board members praised honorees and communications work and encouraged trustees and families to engage with district channels.
