C-FB ISD Principal Wins National Award for Communications

Barbara Bush Middle School Principal, Matt Warnock, is the recipient of the 2013 Blackboard Catalyst for Communications Strategy Award.

The Blackboard Connect Communications Strategy award honors those who use Blackboard Connect to support safety, security and campus engagement with effective communication strategies. Award recipients will have demonstrated results using their mass notification service and/or text messaging technology to respond to an emergency where they were able to keep the campus safe, improve the state of faculty-student communication, and/or impact student retention.

Carrollton-Farmers Branch ISD created an ambassador training program to foster well-informed and highly engaged public school "champions" from various segments of the community - parents, local citizens, business leaders, real estate agents and staff. This unique, sustainable program has created a ripple effect of positive communication and a stronger sense of community across the district.
