• planning and executing information campaigns for a variety of issues including bond elections and new curriculum programs; planning and executing special events and projects;
• providing information, referral and follow-up to ensure prompt and courteous responses for people seeking facts and registering complaints; conducting formal and informal public relations training for staff and school-related groups;
• regularly evaluating communications strategies and advising the administration on communications issues; serving as the district’s liaison to the Union Schools Education Foundation; and facilitating information as part of the district’s crisis communications team.

Flyer Distribution System

Union Public Schools offers an electronic flyer communication tool called “Peachjar.” To view school-approved digital flyers, simply click the Peachjar button on your school’s website homepage. For more information, see our Peachjar page.

 

Phone and Text Messaging

For your convenience, we have also added a district phone message replay line where you can access recent messages sent to you by the district and/or the school your student(s) attend(s).  

The Union Connect-ED Message Line is 918-357-6210. 

The system searches the database by the phone number of the telephone you use to call the message line and gives you the choice of the last nine messages sent to that phone. Visit our Phone and Text Page for more information.

The Union Communications Department coordinates copying and printing services for faculty, staff, parent organizations and other groups associated with the school district. These services are provided through contractual arrangement with various vendors.
