NSPRA is proud to announce recipients of the 2025 Golden Achievement Awards and 2025 Publication and Digital Media Excellence Awards!

A record number of entries were submitted to the NSPRA National School Communication Awards contest this year, showcasing the creativity, strategy and impact of school communication professionals and education leaders across the country.

NSPRA’s Golden Achievement Award recognizes outstanding, strategic work in all aspects of school public relations, communication, marketing and engagement. Entries are judged by volunteer association members and public relations professionals who are experienced, award winning and accredited.

NSPRA’s Publication and Digital Media Awards recognize outstanding tactical materials such as publications, newsletters, videos, podcasts, websites, social media and more. Entries are judged within an entry category for organizations of a similar type and size. Each entry is judged on the overall excellence of the entry as well as its quality compared to other entries in the category.

This year's award-winning entries exemplify the impactful, innovative work shaping the future of school communication.
