Guidelines for Groups & Organizations affiliated with Shaler Area School District
For groups and organizations affiliated with Shaler Area School District (parent organizations, booster groups, clubs, etc.), distributing eflyers through Peachjar will always be free. Your school's Peachjar School Uploader can upload flyers to the school's Peachjar account. Please send flyers via email to the appropriate school-level uploader to begin the distribution process.
School-level uploaders are:
• Primary schools – Building secretaries
• SAES – Heather Oros, activities director: [email protected] or Amy Bodenlos, activities secretary: [email protected]
• Middle School – Judy Crilley, activities secretary: [email protected]
• High School – Mary Lynn Miksic, activities secretary: [email protected] or Denise Dillon, athletic department secretary: [email protected]
Building principals/staff will approve all school-level fliers prior to distribution and posting.
All flyers must meet the Flyer Policy Guidelines detailed below before they will be approved.
Guidelines for Outside Groups & Community Partners
Shaler Area works with community organizations to provide information to students and families on programs and activities that "promote student interests primarily, rather than the special interests of any particular group" according to Policy No. 913. Flyers will be approved through the Office of the Superintendent “on the basis of educational value to the total school program and benefit to students.”
To request flyer approval, follow the steps below. Once approved, your flyer will be emailed to all parents and posted online. Paper flyers from outside organizations will no longer be distributed.
To submit a flyer:
• Visit www.peachjar.com
• Register as a Program Provider (account type)
• Upload your flyer for approval
Your flyer automatically will be submitted to the district office. District staff will review the material and approve or deny based on the standards below. Peachjar charges a fee for this service that is typically much less than the cost to copy and deliver paper flyers to each school.
Peachjar will waive its service fees for local community organizations posting to the district’s schools when promoting a free event or activity that does not entice participants to join a fee-based program, or include the opportunity to purchase products, services, or food and beverages. Organizations interested in requesting a Community Free account must contact Peachjar directly by phone at 858-997-2117 x3 for our district's Customer Support Specialists, or by email at [email protected]. For more information about Peachjar’s Community Free program, please see the policy summary linked on this page.
All flyers must meet the Flyer Policy Guidelines detailed below before they will be approved.
