Recognizing the Talent and Impact of CNUSD’s Communications Team on a National Stage
Washington D. C. - The Corona-Norco Unified School District (CNUSD) Communications Department has once again earned national recognition for its outstanding work in school communications. At the National School Public Relations Association (NSPRA) 2025 National Conference this past July, the team received an impressive 10 awards.
Although the team couldn’t attend the conference in person because of a scheduling conflict, their incredible work still made its mark, earning recognition among the very best in the nation.
The National School Public Relations Association has been the leader in school communication since 1935. Each year, NSPRA recognizes and honors those whose efforts and expertise have had a positive and lasting impact on school public relations and education as well as honors the best work in school communication.
