EXECUTIVE SUMMARY | |
HK Strategies worked with Hillsborough County Public Schools in our first year of the Hillsborough Principal Pipeline (HPP) Grant Implementation. They supported the alignment between the pipeline and two other major district initiatives as they created talking points, power points, newsletter templates, logo designs, and other communication tools highlighting the purpose and outcomes of these initiatives. As we move into year two of our Hillsborough Principal Pipeline, we plan to continue our communication efforts with both internal and external audiences through outreach and engagement, digital communication, and ongoing communications plans. HK Strategies will work with Hillsborough pipeline staff to develop presentations, program brochures, and videos that highlight pipeline programs. They will also support efforts to enhance digital communications through HPP website and use of social media. | |

Funds in the amount of $114,000 will be available from the Wallace Foundation grant. | |
