Flyer Distribution FAQs

Flyer Requirements and Processes

Flyer Requirements

MPS can only share flyers for events, services or notices of meetings that are: related to healthy youth development; youth engagement or education; community services available to parents and families; special events related to family engagement in school or civic matters; or public meetings related to family engagement in school or civic matters.
Flyers may not be more than one page, double sided printed
All flyers for events not co-sponsored by MPS must contain the following disclaimer on the front side of the page: The Minneapolis Public Schools is legally unable to and cannot sponsor, endorse or recommend the activities announced by this flyer
If there is a fee for your program/activity, the program description and flyer must state that no person will be refused because of inability to pay. Your organization must have a process in place to waive fees completely (partial scholarships are not sufficient).
Though not a requirement, it is best practice to provide flyers in our four main languages to make sure you are able to communicate to all MPS families. These languages are: English, Spanish, Hmong, and Somali.

Flyer Approval Process

Flyer Distribution Process

Electronic flyers: MPS External Relations staff will share your approved electronic flyer with the schools that you request. Schools will share the program information with families as they see fit, likely as part of a newsletter or other update. We cannot guarantee each school will share electronic flyers with families. Flyers must be ADA compliant.
Paper flyers: Distributed in k-5 schools only. You may drop off paper flyers (in bundles of 30 per classroom) at schools. Please include one copy of your flyer approval letter. You can contact the school for a count of classrooms.
