Flyer Distribution Guidelines
The Fayetteville-Manlius School District cooperates with community groups and organizations that sponsor activities of an educational/enrichment nature for students and staff by distributing relevant informational materials electronically.
As part of our efforts to be more environmentally friendly, embrace innovative technology, and maintain fiscal responsibility, we use digital flyer delivery via Peachjar, a free online service for schools.
Paper flyers from outside organizations are not distributed within the schools. Instead, e-flyers are emailed directly to parents’ inboxes, as well as posted online for easy access.
Once a flyer is posted to a school’s Peachjar site, parents can view the flyer by clicking on the Peachjar logo on each individual school’s homepage. Additionally, flyers will be delivered to all parents’ emails as an embedded image, not a link. This means parents will immediately see the flyer and be able to click through to an organization’s website to sign-up.
Peachjar charges a fee for this service that is typically less than the cost to copy and deliver flyers to each school. To post a flyer, register at www.peachjar.com, and select your desired school(s). The flyer is then automatically submitted to the district for approval. If approved, the flyer will be delivered to all parents and posted online.
All promotional materials must be submitted at least two weeks prior to distribution, if possible. Please note that the district does not proof submitted flyers for spelling or typographical errors.
The following statement will be automatically placed on the bottom of each flyer: The Fayetteville-Manlius School District does not endorse and is not responsible for any business, services or event advertised in this flyer.
