Preface

Green Dot Public Schools is one of the country’s leading voices in public education and whole-school turnaround. As a respected innovator, we remain committed to our mission of helping transform public education so all students can graduate prepared for college, leadership, and life.

Over the last year, we have overseen an effort to strengthen the organization’s communications and to develop tools and resources designed to assist us all in conveying a compelling story about Green Dot’s mission and impact. The effort included two main components which are now part of a set of materials available for your use: a core toolkit of messages and themes that articulate Green Dot’s vision and values, and a collection of resources and guidelines designed to promote visual consistency in communications across the organization.

Together, we can all make a vital and powerful contribution to telling the world about our work and the incredible people who make it happen.
