There isn't one "right" way to get a company recognized.  The best strategy depends on the company's products, their image and their target market.\n\nPicture yourself as a potential consumer of this company's product.  What are you like?  What do you do - for work and for fun?  What kind of things interest you?  What type of websites do you frequent?  Whose opinions do you value?  What could influence you to consume this product?\n\nThe answers to those questions could help lead you to where to market the company and what strategies to use when marketing for the company.

There area lot of corporations looking to fund noble HBCU causes in education. Look up the large companies in TX and send a letter to the Communications or PR departments with a proposal. I think you've got a good shot at it.

To introduce technology to your school, first your teachers must be familiar with and want to use it. Identify teachers that are not literate in using PC's and other technology, and use some of what budget you do already have to start sending them to trainings, college courses, etc. Find one teacher who is very interested in technology hardware, and send him/her back to college to learn computer repair, software debugging, etc. That teacher can also be the one who develops and implements a technology class for the students.\n\nApproach Dell, IBM, etc. and ask about their special packages for schools. Most of these companies will sell cheaper, and even donate some things, to schools because kids trained on their brand will prefer it when they buy their own computers. You have a choice in your proposal of asking for 2 or 3 computers for each classroom, or asking for 1 computer per classroom and another extra set for a computer lab. Teachers would go into the lab with their students on a rotating schedule. If you go with the lab, ask for enough computers to cover your largest class size plus a couple extra. Also ask for large, company-sized printers that the computers can be networked with. They are much cheaper on ink than individual printers. Try getting 1 for every 10 or 15 computers to start. Be sure to ask for a basic software program set that includes Powerpoint, Word, etc. \n\nDo community fundraisers, and apply for grants from both local and international companies, to help fund additional technology purchases. Companies doing business in your area will want their future workforce trained appropriately to use technology.\n\nBring in a TV set for each classroom, link them together in an in-school network, and have students use a video camera to put on weekly school news broadcasts. This also allows teachers to show educational videos related to the subjects being taught.\n\nGood, cheap educational programming that teachers can load on their class computers includes Reader Rabbit, Monster Math, Carmen SanDiego series, Amazon Trail, etc. Look around at different sites and see what you can find at a discount price. Move your lesson plans templates to Word, encourage teachers to start using Powerpoint to design in-class presentations, etc. (In a year or two you will want to pick up some Powerpoint projectors, if you don't get them in your initial package).\n\nOnce you have your computers up and running, you will need regular funds set aside each year for repairs, new educational software purchases, and additional staff trainings. Grant writing can seriously help with this.\n\nGood luck!

First of all you need to get your name out there. Design your own website. Great free sites include freewebs.com and geocities. Don't forget to call local music stores who sell instruments to let them know you are accepting students. \nJoin professional teacher groups in your area.....Music Teachers National Assoc: www.mtna.org , National Guild of Piano Teachers: www.pianoguild.com , and espcially any organizations in your city. Some of these professional organizations offer student referrals. This is a great way to acquire students.\nAdvertising in a local paper may be another idea. The smaller the newspaper the better. (Here we have a paper that's just for our town, not the entire city.)\nIf there aer kids in your neighborhood, stuff newspaper boxes with flyers. \nJoin Yahoo! piano teachers group!\n\nGood luck to you! I am a piano teacher of 19 years. Currently with 52 students. 40 of my own and 12 with an apprentice teacher.

Contact the schools board office, they should be able to give you a copy of it or if they can't they will know how to get it.

well, you need to call them and ask their board of ed. if they have openings. Ask questions of all the schools in the area and you will be suprised what you may come up with.

Make a calendar of all the hot babes & hunks (in whatever poses you think will sell) in your school and sell them to the population.(2 calendars, one babe, one hunk) While this is going on, you now sell raffle tickets whose first prize(s) is a dinner/disco date with any one of the calendar models. If a calendar is not feasible since it is April, then maybe produce a colored magazine of them instead. Who knows, you may be able to sell the magazine off campus and make bigger bucks. Be sure to include the reason you are raising funds. Show pictures of orphans and a sample school buiding for maximum impact.\n\nIf ever you find my suggestion noteworthy, could you send me a copy of the magazine?

You need to know the needs of the company, business, whatever, and you need to go in and convince them that you will meet these needs.  Learn as much as you can about the company.  I notice you posted in "special education."  If you are applying to be a teacher, you need to convince them that you will not only meet the students' needs, but you will also volunteer to do extra, and that you are good at managing students.\n\nIf you tell us the job for which you are interviewing, we can give you more specific information.

It would be helpful to know what kind of a new school, private, secular, or public charter, or another kind...\n\nThese are in no particular order:\n\n1. Be very thorough in your research.  You will have to 'sell' your school to at least one "Board of Education," any potential sponsors, the community it is in, the parents of prospective students, and the teachers and staff that you will want to hire for the school.  Make sure that when you have to make your case to each of these groups (often through the media) you have answers ready to as many questions as you can.  Also, know where to quickly find answers to questions you don't have immediate answers to.\n\n2. Know why you are starting a new school, and make a list of priorities that will help you fill this need.  Is there a certain type of education or style of learning that this school will cater to, or will this just be a traditional school placed so that students don't have to travel as much to get a basic education?  Does the category of school (charter, private, secular, etc.) require a certain type of school (i.e. charter schools usually require an innovative approach to learning, so you cannot use a 'traditional' school model)?  Thinking through the priorities, especially those that will set this school apart from others, will be crucial to your planning.\n\n3. Do not 'Reinvent the Wheel.'  The variety of schools in this country are incredible, and we are not the only country on this planet.  With a little research, you will find a school that has tried what you want to do.  Or better yet, several.  Even if you do not wish to clone another school, you can learn from its successes, and its failures.  And you will probably learn about something you didn't realize you had to think about.\n\n4. Do not be afraid to be innovative.  This may seem to somewhat contradict the last statement, but each situation is unique, and a new beginning gives you a unique chance to try something nobody else has.  And the innovation does not necessarily have to be in the educational aspect.  Perhaps a new requirement for your school may be to use only energy efficient lighting, or to use only 'green materials' in construction.  Keep in mind that your school will be a business, and will have expenses, need supplies, and have to follow certain regulations.  A little extra planning now may save thousands of dollars or hundreds of man hours over the years, freeing up those resources so that they can be used for the core purpose of the school, education.\n\n5. Consider partnership agreements with other schools and businesses.  Extra-curricular activities can be shared with a neighboring school, or split between several.  Will you have a cafeteria?  If yes, and student nutrition is a high priority, perhaps an agreement with a farm coop for fresh produce, or a farmer's market for a discount on the leftover unsold produce.  If not, an agreement with another school's food service, or even a local restaurant (or several if are small businesses) can help cover your needs. \n\n6.  HIRE A PROFESSIONAL GRANT WRITER.  Grants are free money, and should be a high priority for any school.  The school I helped to found hired a grant writer, and the first grant she obtained for the school was for almost double her annual salary!  Your grant writer doesn't have to be a permanent part of the staff, or even be contracted for a long term, but an experienced professional will know where to find grants for almost any specific circumstance, and will find them much faster than someone who is inexperienced.  And, in the case of grants, time wasted is money lost, grants are first come, first served.\n\n7. Find a professional (non-profit when possible) organization who can give you aid and advice.  Check with similar schools, or your state Department of Education to determine who might be available.  Even if you have to pay a fee to join a co-op or pay for

Start with PTA meetings or through your school itself.  Ask families you know to help through word of mouth.  That's a quick way of starting.

You should seek sponsorship from an established charity instead of seeking individual donors, at least to start with. Which charity you can approach depends on your location and what education programs you want to implement. Some of the larger, international businesses also have charity grants for stuff like this.
