For his work with the Sunnyside Unified School District’s netbook program, Superintendent Manuel L. Isquierdo was given an award by the Arizona School Public Relations Association (ASPRA).
He accepted his award on April 21 during a luncheon at the Chandler Center for the Arts.
This ASPRA*tions award was given to Isquierdo for the “Superintendent for Contributions to Public Relations” category. It was awarded to him for his involvement with fundraising for school programs, his work on SUSD website design and for his community outreach.
Much of this recognition comes from his work with the netbook program, “Project Graduation: The Digital Advantage,” which awards netbooks to qualifying freshman students to help graduation rates.
The netbook program has shown increasing success each year since it was launched in 2007. It continues to gain recognition at the state and national levels. Isquierdo alone raised $1.2 million for the Digital Advantage program and then created a marketing plan to sell the program to help schools nationwide.
At the March 9 Sunnyside School Board Meeting, Isquierdo thanked his colleagues for their “consistently outstanding work.”
