northeastern University collaboration
The Nahant Education Foundation saw a gap in opportunities for their very small local school’s curriculum because of its size. Public school budgets continue to be squeezed, but the demands on public education continue to grow as they seek to equip students with 21st century skills. They found a solution in forming a partnership with Northeastern University. Woven into the curriculum, the Marine Science Program exposes all students to Northeastern University’s world-renowned research facility.
Mary Jo led the marketing with website design, social media posts, content creation and event marketing. The hugely successful program resulted in securing private funding, publicity, and awards on the state level.
