Brand Tone

Brand Values

• •Academic Excellence
• •Holistic Development
• •Curiosity & Creativity
• •Community
• •Character & Integrity
• •Personalized Attention

Best Practices

• •Develop a Voice Guide: Document key characteristics of the brand voice (e.g., "We are encouraging, not condescending. We are knowledgeable, not arrogant."). Share this with anyone creating content.
• •Focus on "Benefit of the Benefit": Instead of just stating "small class sizes," explain the benefit: "Our small class sizes mean more personalized attention, ensuring your child's unique talents are seen and nurtured."
• •Use Storytelling: Share specific examples and stories of student success, teacher dedication, or community impact. Stories resonate more deeply than general statements.
• •Be Visually Consistent: Ensure that photography and videography align with the brand's tone (e.g., bright, natural, authentic). Visuals are a powerful part of voice.
• •Engage Authentically: When responding to comments or messages on social media, maintain the established brand tone. Be helpful, positive, and professional, reinforcing the community and supportive values.
