The blast editor collects submissions throughout the week and then compiles them into the e-newsletter for distribution on Sunday. Through the Mailchimp program (easy to learn-guidance provided), the editor organizes the information that was sent over the course of the week, adds links, any pictures (optional), and decides if the submissions need to be tweaked. He/She also updates the weekly information (VFMS weekly events, day cycle number, etc).
Overall, this job requires about 1 hour each week, and contact with the VFMS PTO president for approval before distribution to the school community.
This job provides a low-commitment opportunity to be involved in the school, and to stay on top of school happenings!
