Q3: How are you using social media to connect with colleges and future teachers? Feel free to post a screenshot. #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Q2 I love using both Facebook and Twitter to keep up on all that goes on in our district. I always hope they really feel the support through the likes even when we can't be everywhere....we sure can celebrate all the greatness that happens in our schools. #K12Talent
TaylorZWhitacre Apr 24 @ 9:18 PM EDT

Q3: Our theme is #BeKnown for Greatness. We ask students we interview to write what they want to be known for as a teacher then tweet a collage of their pictures from each college recruiting event #K12Talent

Q4: Does your district use social media to connect with alumni who are future teachers? How? #K12Talent
bcwhite Apr 24 @ 9:21 PM EDT

A4. We have not - but would love to hear how others do this and learn! #K12Talent
PLCS_HR Apr 24 @ 9:23 PM EDT

Q5: How are you using social media to celebrate others? Screenshots welcome! #K12Talent

Q4 I have found that a lot of our alumni are getting on facebook when they head off to college. I created a Facebook group for alumni of our GYOT program (Education Academy). It's always fun to interact with them. #K12Talent

Q6: Any Facebook Live users out there? How have you used this effectively? #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:32 PM EDT

A6: I take no credit for this- our district is doing a large bond issue and have seen a ton of engagement from the public through many Facebook lives held at noon and night. So convenient for people in a busy time. Our HR supt @HydeRenee hosted one live from a PTO mtg! #K12Talent
TaylorZWhitacre Apr 24 @ 9:34 PM EDT

A6: We've used Facebook Live to connect with our community about an upcoming bond. Our Superintendent had been doing Q&A sessions over lunch to engage with anyone who has questions #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:35 PM EDT

Q7: How have you used social media for professional development with staff? #K12Talent
bcwhite Apr 24 @ 9:36 PM EDT

A5. I could improve in this for sure! We have shared award winners on our Facebook page 🏆 #K12Talent
bcwhite Apr 24 @ 9:38 PM EDT

A6 have not delved into Facebook live for professional purposes at this time - but sounds like another great idea to explore! #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:40 PM EDT

Q8: Are you using social media to promote programs within your staff such as wellness and informational sessions? #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:44 PM EDT

A5 I love celebrating when we hire new staff. We joked with Sam here that he is so popular he almost broke our Twitter! We try and tag the school and note things like him being an alumni and a student teacher. #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:45 PM EDT

Q9. What resources can you share or any final words of wisdom you’d like to provide on today’s topic. #K12Talent
bcwhite Apr 24 @ 9:45 PM EDT

A7. We used twitter hashtags to share during our District PD conference throughout the day #437PD #K12Talent
katisettles Apr 24 @ 9:46 PM EDT

A7 Occasionally will share an article and do some retweeting but could do better in this aspect. I also keep a prove Facebook group for our new teachers to connect with each other and ask questions. #K12Talent
