Turning the Tide: Combating Negativity About Texas Public Schools!


Amid rising misinformation and criticism, administrators, educators, and community stakeholders have a unique opportunity to shape the narrative about Texas public education. Scott Milder, founder of Friends of Texas Public Schools, delivered a powerful message about the battle against negativity and misinformation surrounding public education. He shared strategies at a recent School Public Relations in North Texas (SPRINT) meeting to help counter these challenges:


  • Proactively Share Success Stories: Use newsletters, social media, and community events to highlight the achievements, innovative programs, and daily miracles happening in your schools.

  • Engage in Honest Conversations: Equip your team with facts to address misconceptions, including the financial and academic advantages public schools offer over alternatives.

  • Foster Personal Connections: Build trust by directly engaging with families and community leaders through calls, face-to-face meetings, and personalized outreach.


When school leaders take the lead in sharing these messages, they inspire their communities to see public schools for what they truly are: dynamic, thriving centers of learning and opportunity.
