Multimedia Guidelines It is critical that the district logo be used properly on all multimedia presentations. This includes the Internet and PowerPoint presentations.

PowerPoint templates and logos with a transparent background are available for download on the district website. If you need assistance, please contact the Communication Office.
Emails E-mails used for district- related purposes need to be more formal, polished, and professional in tone as well as concise and easy to read. Always be aware that by law all PTISD e-mails are public documents open to public scrutiny. Use black or dark colors for type in e-mails; avoid using bright or lightly shaded type, only because it can be difficult to read.
Emails All employees are encouraged to review district policy on appropriate use of e-mail and the network. The policy can be found on the Technology Department Web site. Also, it is always good to keep your signature information current. To view your information, open an e-mail that you have sent and double-click on your name at the top of the e-mail. Adding information to your signature is a great way to share information.
Names and Title Guidelines Specific standards that apply to the names and titles of things and people in our organization are outlined below. Pine Tree Independent School District The formal name, the Pine Tree Independent School District, should always be used in the first reference in any communication. It should be followed by (PTISD) to specify subsequent references. It may also be referred to as the district (not capitalized) in subsequent references.
Names and Title Guidelines Specific standards that apply to the names and titles of things and people in our organization are outlined below. Superintendent of Schools and Other Titles The formal position title is superintendent of schools. Like all titles (principal, regional superintendent, manager, etc.), it is capitalized only when used as a formal title before the name, such as Superintendent of Schools TJ Farler. This title should always be used in the first reference of any communication. Subsequent references may be written as the superintendent of schools, the superintendent, or Dr. Farler.
Names and Title Guidelines Academic DegreesIn lists of individuals that appear in formal programs and on inside cover pages of official district documents, indicate advanced degrees (doctorate). Do so using abbreviations with periods and no spaces (e.g., Daniel Jones, Ph.D.; Mary Smith, Ed.D.).
Names and Title Guidelines Board of TrusteesThe formal title of the governing body is the Pine Tree Independent School District Board of Trustees. This should always be used in the first reference of any communication. Subsequent references may be the board (not capitalized) or school board. To maintain consistency in communications, please do not use Board of Education. An individual is referred to as either a trustee, school-board member, or board member. These individual titles are capitalized only when used as a formal title before the name.
Names and Title Guidelines Offices and Departments Capitalize the word in plural In PTISD, organizational units uses as well (e.g., the Human that report directly to the Resources and Communication superintendent of schools are Offices). Use a lowercase o called offices. These direct or d in the office or the report offices are made up of department in subsequent departments. Capitalize the references (e.g. Almost every word office or department employee in the department in the name of an office or attended the fitness rally.) department (e.g., the Office of Facility Services, the Office of Human Resources, the Special Education Department).
