PreK-12 EDUCATION

Never before has there been such concentrated public and media attention on our nation's schools. A seemingly endless array of individuals and organizations are vying for support for their reports, initiatives, policies and products. It is vital to have an acute understanding of the environment and politics of the education community to capture the attention of the press, public officials and key decision makers.

At Widmeyer Communications we understand the issues surrounding PreK-12 education. Our roots in the field are deep - our founder, Scott Widmeyer, formerly directed communications for the legendary education reformer Al Shanker. For nearly 20 years, we have established and sustained excellent relationships with education media. Those relationships are key to helping our clients gain attention for their ideas and agendas.

We have earned a reputation for consistent results for a wide range of PreK-12 education clients including nonprofit associations, foundations, education technology start-ups, corporations and local, state and federal government entities.

Above all, we have a passion to help our PreK-12 education clients succeed in the field that matters most: educating our nation's youth.
