Stair Step Brochure - English Stair Step Brochure - English The Communications team was tasked with promoting Garland ISD’s extensive magnet program. With new magnet offerings, one of the first tasks was to redesign the program’s brochure. While the former three-color simple trifold provided vital information, we wanted to present details in fresh, organized fashion. The piece was transformed into a clean and colorful stair-step brochure, which helps families easily flip to the section of interest. A true Garland ISD product, all Garland ISD writing, design, photography and printing Magnet Programs Closed View were completed in-house. To help this brochure stand out from other collateral, it was smaller than normal printed 2019-20 communications, 5.5” x 8.5”, and used faux tabs to create a stair-step format. Garland ISD’s brand color of maroon was used along with other complimentary colors and circles to give it a fun feel. Not only was the client— GISD’s magnet program team—impressed with the final result, they ordered 2,500 to distribute at the #ChooseGarlandISD student recruiting event.

  • Senior Citizen VIP Pass
    Senior Citizen VIP Pass ENTRANT: Tiffany Veno, Director of Communications Garland ISD 501 S. Jupiter Road, Garland, TX 75042 972-487-3258 [email protected] TYPE OF DISTRICT/ORGANIZATION SUBMITTING ENTRY: Public school district - Over 25,000 students No. of Communications staff - 5 ENTRY CATEGORY: Public engagement/parent involvement Please consider this entry for a Golden Achievement Award! Write-up SYNOPSIS Often described as a big district with a small-town, family feel, Garland ISD enjoys a rich history of more than 100 years. Many staff members spend their entire career in the district—the longest serving 68 years—and some even graduate from GISD as well. While a seasoned community is undoubtedly a point of pride, an aging demographic can also present its own challenge. Historic GISD data shows that voters 65 and older participate in most elections but do not initially favor school bond referendums. Looking ahead to the future, Garland ISD wanted to reconnect its senior citizens with the district to give them an accurate perspective. More importantly, GISD also wanted to honor those who helped build its tri-city community. In August 2019, the district launched a senior citizen VIP pass program, offering free admission to all GISD-hosted athletics and fine arts events. The district’s Communications Department was also challenged with a goal of 1,000 cardholders by the end of the first year. To help spread the word, tactics included an announcement in the Superintendent’s State of the District address, digital billboards, electronic and printed newsletters, the district’s website, social media and more.
