District office lobby screens that show off every school
Parents come to the district office to enroll, attend board meetings or sort out transportation, and most wait in the lobby. A screen there can share district news and dates while celebrating students and staff from every building.

Why it matters
The central office rarely shows the schools it serves
District lobbies often have a seal on the wall and a rack of forms. Families enrolling for the first time see nothing of the classrooms, teams and teachers waiting for them. Board meeting notices hang on a corkboard by the door.
Ideas for District Office Lobby Screens
Board meeting dates
Post the next board meeting date, time and location, set to end after the meeting.
Enrollment and registration windows
Remind families of kindergarten registration, school choice deadlines and the documents to bring.
A highlight from each school
Rotate one photo and one success from every building so no school is left out.
Recognition from school sites
Play a folder from a school’s Rocket site, such as a hall of fame class or a team’s records.
District job openings
Point visitors to open roles such as bus drivers, substitutes and paraprofessionals.
Employee of the year honors
Celebrate district teacher and support staff awards with a photo and a short note.
How it works with Digital Signage
District Office Lobby Screens, step by step.
Three steps
Manage every building in one place
Screens for each of your Rocket sites sit under one login, and the editor shows which are online.
Give the lobby its own timeline
The central office screen can carry district news while each school’s screens keep their own content.
Send one alert district-wide
When weather or an urgent update affects every building, one alert reaches every screen set to allow alerts across your Rocket sites, alongside your emergency notification system.
Setups vary by school; your demo confirms what yours will use.

Request one photo and a line of text from each principal or communications contact every month.
Keep public notices exact
Use the meeting times and wording from the board’s posted agenda so the screen matches the official notice.
Check screens across buildings

Questions
District Office Lobby Screens questions
The lobby screen plays its own timeline of district news, dates and school highlights. Screens for each of your Rocket sites sit under one login, so the communications team can check them and send one alert to all of them when needed.
Each screen keeps its own timeline. In your demo, ask how access can be split across buildings so school staff and the district office share the work.
No. Treat the screen as an extra reminder. Official public notices still follow your district’s required process.
We quote signage for the screens and buildings you choose. Model numbers for current displays help, but you do not need them to start a conversation.
