MUSD Takes Home Two National Awards at NSPRA 2025
MENIFEE (CNS) – The Menifee Union School District received two awards from the National School Public Relations Association, school district officials announced Friday.
The NSPRA awarded the MUSD based on their outstanding achievements in podcasting via the “Limitless Futures” podcast and their community engagement through the district’s inaugural State of the District Event.
The “Limitless Futures” podcast received the 2025 NSPRA Award of Excellence in the podcast category of the Publications and Digital Media Excellence Awards. The podcast, hosted by school principals and parents Stephanie Acosta and Jon Mitchem, explores the challenges and joys of raising children in Friday’s world. It also focuses on sharing real-life stories and insights to help parents support their child’s educational journey, district officials announced.
The district’s State of the District Event was awarded the 2025 NSPRA Golden Achievement Award. The event is an annual gathering that provides the community with a comprehensive look at the district’s achievements, goals and financial wealth, according to district officials.
“I am incredibly proud of our team’s commitment to building strong connections with our families and the community,” said Superintendent Dr. Jennifer Root.
“These awards show that our dedication to clear and open communication is making a real difference. We believe that when we share our story and listen to our community, we can truly prepare every student for a limitless future,” Root added.
“These awards are a reflection of the hard work and passion of our entire MUSD team,” said Board of Trustees President Kyle Root. “We are committed to providing the best for our students, and that includes being transparent and engaged with the community we serve.”
The Menifee Union School District was formally recognized at the 2025 NSPRA National Seminar in Washington, D.C., an event that Devina Ortega Castro, director of communications and community engagement attended to accept the award on behalf of the district.
