Redesigning Public Schools to Recapture Market Share Webinar
2025-10-24 09:00 - 10:00 | Webinar
Register Here
Florida’s public schools are entering one of the most dynamic and competitive periods in their history. Declining birth rates juxtaposed with more educational options than ever before – from traditional public schools to charters, micro-schools, homeschooling, and voucher-supported private programs, the expanding landscape reflects parents’ growing role as active consumers in their children’s education, with funding following the choices they make.
For public school districts, this new environment underscores the importance of understanding and serving their “customer base.” Superintendents and school boards must invest in strategies that build internal systems to retain and regain students, strengthen family engagement, build trust, and highlight the unique value public schools provide to their communities. Those that do will be best positioned to maintain enrollment, protect critical programs, and sustain the resources that fuel teaching and learning.
Topics we will cover:

Market share systems capabilities that must be developed or transformed to compete and win back enrollments
How to address the marketing, recruiting, and customer service skills gaps in school principals and district staff
Alternatives to closing schools and how to win families back
How to assess your district market share systems
How to identify ineffective marketing and PR strategies that do not build the internal capacity of districts and schools to improve relationships to win back families by truly listening to their needs

This webinar will explore practical strategies districts can use to win back market share and strengthen community trust, including rethinking school models, improving customer service, and using facilities creatively rather than simply closing them.

A Conversation on Math Readiness and Opportunity
Math is a critical driver of student success, and of Florida’s future workforce. Students who are “math ready” are likely to earn more, advance further, and help power the innovation economy our state depends on.
Join us for a timely conversation about where Florida students stand in math achievement today, what the latest data reveal, and how education foundations can lead the way in supporting teachers and students by directing resources and leading crucial conversations. Our speakers will unpack Florida NAEP results and statewide data from Curriculum Associates to help you identify the most meaningful investments for math education in your community.
You’ll learn:

What the data say about math performance across Florida
How local education foundations can engage in and lead math-focused initiatives
Where to direct resources to make the greatest impact
