North Penn earned seven awards total, with two Awards of Excellence, two Awards of Honor, and two Awards of Merit. PenSPRA’s Communications Contest gives professionals in school communications an opportunity to showcase their work throughout the school year. This year, eligible categories for submission included Graphic Design, Photography, Publications, Website and Apps, Writing, Crisis Management, Videos, and Social Media. Judging was conducted by a panel of independent professionals, who provided all contestants with feedback after the contest had concluded.
The highest honor, an Award of Excellence, was earned twice in the Publications category by Erika Shaedle, NPSD Advertising and Marketing Specialist, for the NPSD Annual Report 2021-2022 and the NPSD Activities Calendar 2022-2023.

Additionally, Gillmer earned an Award of Merit in the Social Media category for the Superintendent Live Series.
“Communicating with our community is always a priority for North Penn,” said Christine Liberaski, Director of School and Community Engagement. “We are proud of the awards achieved, but even prouder of the student and staff accomplishments that our publications and videos highlight.”
