News for OWU Families is accepting posts for the September edition. Please submit news for parents and families using this News for OWU Families form by noon Friday, Sept. 1. This monthly email communication is sent to all parents and families of current students and mimics the style and process of the OWU Daily. The open rate for August 2023 was 65%! Families are reading it! Tips: 1) eliminate OWU jargon, abbreviations, or acronyms from your emails; 2) use ‘family’ or ‘parents and families’; 3) consider your voice and tone – direct your message to families (not students).
During the academic year, emails will be sent on the first Wednesday of every month. Submissions will be due the Friday before each email release. The goal of this digest is to keep parents and families informed, engaged, and supplied regularly with resources. Please plan to review with your team on a monthly basis what information is of value to parents and families from your area. We encourage you to make monthly calendar reminders to create submissions and spread the word about this new communication tool to engage our OWU families.
