Former Pittsburg High School student Madisyn Robison is the new public information officer and social media manager for the USD 250 school district.
“I had my first experience with social media management when I was a student at PHS,” Robison said. “I was a writer and photographer for The Booster Redux all four years of my high school career and my sophomore year we, as a staff, decided we wanted to have an online presence. So, myself and another student took on the task of rebuilding The Booster’s website and social media platforms. I was then able to manage those platforms until I graduated.”
Robison was hired in May of 2023. According to Robison, the job has been great because of the people she works with.
“One of my favorite things about my job is that I don’t really have a typical day, everyday is different,” Robison said. “I usually try to divide my day and spend a little bit of time monitoring the district’s social media platforms, and looking over our website to see if there are any improvements or updates that need to be made. The rest of my day could be filled with a lot of different things like taking pictures of activities going on around the district or creating graphics for future social media posts.”
Before getting the job as the public information officer, Robison was a full time student at PIttsburg State University. After graduating Robison heard about the job opening for the public information officer and saw it as a promising opportunity.
“So far, my favorite thing about being the public information officer is getting to go to the different schools and take pictures of all the fun activities going on around the district,” Robison said. “Then I get to share how awesome our students and staff are with the community.”
