    Contact: Lisa Colton Chief Learning Officer, See3 Communications President, Darim Online (434) 260.0177 [email protected] For Immediate Release NEW COHORT LAUNCHES THE 2013-2014 JEWISH DAY SCHOOL SOCIAL MEDIA ACADEMY November 18, 2013 This fall the third cohort of the Jewish Day School Social Media Academy has begun their journey to advance their strategic use of social media in areas such as communication, marketing, community building, alumni relations and development. See3 Communications / Darim Online is thrilled to partner with The AVI CHAI Foundation and Big Duck once again to produce this intensive program. This year's cohort of 15 schools was selected after a rigorous application process to determine schools' readiness for the program and their areas of interest for their social media projects. The schools span geography, size, denomination and experience with social media, but all are seeking to mature their operations, and have demonstrated willingness to take important risks to move themselves and their communities forward. Some are just beginning their social media journey. Others have been developing their work for some time, and are seeking to take their work to the next level. This will be the third cohort of the Academy. The first year was a pilot group of 10 schools in the New York and New Jersey areas. The second cohort of 20 schools across the country excelled last year and created important momentum for the field. "This year's cohort is a powerful list of top schools around the country that are thinking big and marked by excellence in everything that they do," said Colton.
