A new collaborative report from NSPRA and ThoughtExchange examines current trends in AI adoption, highlights key opportunities and challenges, and provides practical guidance for effective and responsible use in school communication.

From shifting policies to evolving responsibilities and the ongoing challenge of misinformation, 2024-25 was a defining year for school communication professionals. Across the NSPRA community, members sought support, shared solutions and leaned into their roles as trusted voices in times of change.

Each year, NSPRA’s Mark of Distinction program honors exemplary chapters serving their members and advancing the mission of the national association. For 2025, 16 chapters have earned the distinction.

Four of the board’s 13 officer positions are up for election in 2025, with six NSPRA members seeking election to the leadership roles.

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