Communications
The Office of Communications of Marietta City Schools provides clear, thoughtful communications throughout the district, among all schools, and in collaboration with the greater community.

In addition, the department develops and implements strategic communications that promote district initiatives and programs.
Upon request, the Communications Department is able to offer guidance with requests for graphic design assistance, photo and video opportunities, social media guidance, and strategic communications consulting. Requests may be sent to mcspr@marietta-city.k12.ga.us and will be evaluated based on need, deadline, and availability of the department.
