School Resources

Schools on FreeMesa:

• A Quick Walkthrough

  FreeMesa has a lot to offer schools in the way of Fund Raising and Features to help connect them with their communities. This presentation will show you what's available for schools and how the program works.

How to Set up a Group & Raise Funds

• Watch the Training Videos

  Here are a series of Flash Videos that will walk you through the group setup process, showing each step of the way and explaining how the features & revenue sharing programs work. It will take ~30 minutes to be fully trained on Groups at FreeMesa.

Reaching out to the community

The groups are only useful if the parents in the community know about them. These resources will help educate the parents in your community about your new group, what it is for, and train them on how to use it.

• Parent Flyer*

  This is a flyer than can be either emailed or printed and directly handed out to the parents. Its purpose is to edcuate people as to the groups existance and what it can be used for, and why they should use it.

• Group Walkthrough*

  This is a text version of the School Powerpoint presentation. It will walk the parents through the group step by step, showing them how it works. This would be good for parents with a slow net connection that can't handle the video presentations.

• Newsletter Blurb*

  If your school sends out a weekly email to your community, this blurb could be easily added to it to let your parents know about the new group.

*Important!

To make the documents work for your school, you will need to open them, and make two replacements:

• Replace <<school name>> with the name of your school
• Replace <<URL>> with the URL of your school.
• • ex: '<<URL>>' becomes 'https://freemesa.org/group_name'
