Subject: Marketing to Diverse Audiences

Good morning. The student body of our K-8 school is 26 percent
ethnically diverse. In addition, nearly 29 percent of our 283 families
receive some form of tuition assistance (excluding tuition remission).
Diversity - both socio-economic and ethnic - is a major emphasis for us.
If you have experienced success marketing to ethnically diverse
populations, particularly Latino/Hispanic and Asian, I would love to
hear about your strategies and techniques.

Thank you for sharing.
