Over our 40 years of dealing exclusively with
schools, the staff of The Ryan Craig Company has repeatedly
been asked these same, and similar, questions. In order
to better serve our clients and help them meet their needs,
we have assembled long lists of individuals and companies
who provide the services that our clients have been asking
for. Although we can not offer any recommendations, we would
like to make that list available to you, so you can contact
the appropriate people and make your own selections. The
list is comprised of companies and individuals who have
been referred to us by school owners and operators who found
the services worthwhile and helpful. The length of the list
prevents us from offering all the names on this site at
one time. However, each month we will feature certain categories
and provide the names which have been given to us. We would
also appreciate hearing from you about your experience with
any of these services or with a new name to add to the list.
- How can I find a really good director?
- How can I motivate staff effectively, or
stop gossip, or find a substitute?
- How do owners manage multiple sites?
- What do I tell a parent whose child has
been bitten, hit or hurt?
- What type of advertising really works?
We are also frequently asked questions, like
those above, which deal with the operational aspects of the
school business. In order to address your queries in those
areas, we will periodically be featuring articles which focus
on recurring concerns, such as staffing, dealing with parents,
curriculum and program, helping special needs children, safety,
increasing enrollment, and numerous others. We truly welcome
any advice, suggestions, helpful hints, relevant articles,
or opinions that you would like to share. Please call us or
submit your contribution in writing.
We hope you will find these services useful
in your effort to create and maintain a quality school. The
Ryan Craig Company believes that sharing information with
others in the field is one way to enhance the profession and
further our common goal of providing the best educational
environment for all children.
