Did you know that the Fargo-Moorhead metro region has more than 15,000 public school students in kindergarten through fifth grade? Did you know that each of the three public school districts allow outside agencies to advertise to these elementary students and their families every month?

Moorhead Area Public Schools, Fargo Public Schools, and West Fargo Public Schools have policies that prohibit the distribution of individual, district-wide handouts and backpack stuffers to students. Rather, outside organizations may reach these students and their families by purchasing ad space in each district's monthly catalog: Moorhead's KIDSource*, Fargo's AD-Ventures for Kids and Teens, and West Fargo's Kid-Ventures and Teen-Ventures. Moorhead Area Public Schools also allows advertising in two additional publications that they publish three times a year: Parenting Press​ and their community education catalog.

Does your organization have an event, camp, class, or registration window to advertise? Let Hansen Public Relations do the work for you!
While the three districts offer a similar publication to their families, their pricing structure, ad guidelines, submission deadlines, publication schedules, and payment deadlines are all unique. The details can be a lot to manage, particularly for an organization trying to advertise in multiple publications for the same month. Hansen Public Relations offers a seamless system for ensuring your organization is uniquely represented in each school's publication on a monthly or as-needed basis.
