Educate Kansas https://educatekansas.org/ is sharing free marketing materials every week through the first full week of May, Teacher Appreciation Week, to help support your teacher recruitment efforts and promote the teaching profession. These resources are shared through a Canva link, with the ability to edit and share on your own media platforms.  

This week’s marketing tool is an “Inspired to Teach” postcard. The intended audience is anyone considering entering the field of education. This postcard can be sent to potential educator candidates such as high school CTE students, paraprofessionals, college-level students who are undecided on their major, and community members with potential who have an associate or bachelor’s degree. Possible language to add to the postcard: “Do you want to make a difference?” or “Become the teacher they will never forget!” Feel free to create your own inspirational message to share with candidates to celebrate the profession. This template can be customized with a photo of teachers within your district, or you can use the stock photo. 

Possible hashtags to add: #Inspired2Teach #EducateKansas #ThankaKansasTeacher #KSLeaders 

If you want to customize the templates but are unfamiliar with using the Canva platform, you can watch the “How To” videos.
