Case Study: East Butler Public School District achieves streamlined, campus-wide communication with Skykit digital signage

Small Rural School District Goes Big with Digital Signage

East Butler Public School District, a small rural PK–12 district in Brainard, Nebraska serving just over 300 students, needed to modernize communications beyond a loudspeaker, handouts and email. Principal Michael Eldridge sought a user-friendly, cost-effective solution and reached out to Skykit for digital signage.

Skykit delivered a cloud-based digital signage CMS via remote setup, installing a large hallway display and enabling staff and students to publish Google Slides/Docs, images, PDFs and videos on schedules or in real time from any device. The Skykit system standardized messaging and branding, expanded daily announcements, activity schedules, lunch menus and sports news to the whole community, scaled with district needs, and remained budget-friendly with online support.
