If you are part of a school organization, you know how important it is to have a good newsletter. Faculty and administrators need an effective and timely manner of communication in order to keep their community aware of the school. (announcements, events, news, accolades, sports teams, future plans).

Newsletters are an amazing way to get your message out.  Thanks to content curation, it’s easier than ever to send newsletters through Gmail without a lot of work.  Content curation is the act of discovering, gathering, and presenting digital content that surrounds specific subject matter.
