Submit a flyer for approval of digital distribution via Peachjar

Digital Flyer Distribution 

Our district prioritizes partnerships that enhance student success, equitable access to opportunities, and a thriving environment. The Yakima School District has partnered with Peachjar to provide digital distribution of important school and community information directly to parents. Adoption of this new platform is in line with our efforts to help close the achievement gap and provide our students with access to beneficial programs and resources in their native language.

Please note: flyers from outside organizations are not sponsored by, affiliated with, nor endorsed by the District.

To request flyer approval, follow the steps below. Paper flyers from outside organizations will no longer be distributed. 

●    Visit peachjar.com 
●    Register as a community organization (account type)
●    Upload your flyer for approval

Your flyer will be automatically submitted to the district office for approval. Once approved, your flyer will be emailed to parents and posted on each school’s web flyer board for your selected duration of time. Peachjar charges a fee for this service that is typically much less than the cost to copy and deliver paper flyers to each school. 

Information for Community Partners

Community organizations that wish to distribute information to parents can now do so through Peachjar. There is a fee for this of $25 per school. Paper flyers will no longer be distributed.

Peachjar offers a free flyer program for qualifying community organizations. Click here for more information on how to qualify or contact Peachjar (877) 402-1786 or email support@peachjar.com.

Guidelines

Allowable flyers should support the district’s promise, directly benefit the students, or be of intrinsic value to the students or their parents/guardians. Dissemination of the information does not reflect the district’s endorsement or sponsorship of the activity.  All materials distributed must contain the district’s disclaimer statement. 

Please check the recommendations on this page, including the necessary disclaimers required for you to add to your flyer prior to submission. The district or the school will not distribute materials that:

• Are lewd, obscene, libelous, or slanderous.
• Contain language that is intimidating, demeaning, harassing, or threatening on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin or ancestry, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, age, disability, marital or veteran status, including, but not limited to, racial, sexual, or ethnic slurs;
• Discriminate against, attack, or denigrate any group on account of gender, race, age, color, religion, ancestry, national origin, disability, or other unlawful consideration.
• Promote commercial enterprises;
• Promote the violation of existing laws, regulations or ordinances, or official school policy, rules or regulations; or
• Proselytize or disparage religious beliefs.
• Should not imply YSD’s endorsement of any identified product and/or of services.
• Should not promote the use or sale of materials or services that are illegal or inconsistent with school objectives, including, but not limited to, materials or advertisements for tobacco, intoxicants, and movies or products unsuitable for children.

The Superintendent's delegate, the Communications Office, will review and determine whether the materials are approved for distribution to students. Any further review will be made by the superintendent/designee whose decision is final.
