To reach the most people you have to play into Facebook’s newsfeed algorithm, and you can do that two ways:
Post rich content like photos, videos, and links.

Make a graphic out of information instead of just typing it in the status update. Simply overlay the info in big, bold text over a relevant image or a plain colored background.
Find cartoons about education
Take behind-the-scenes pictures of your members and events Try www.pixlr.com or Picasa.
It bears repeating: Post tons of images!

Publicize events and programs
Share videos
Share tools & tips
Use petitions and other easy calls to action.
Message discipline! Make sure all posts, even the fun ones, further your association’s overall message.
Make posts very short. If your info is long/complicated, link to more information. (Note: Keep your website current — website and social media go hand in hand)
Be positive.
Be informal and use organizing language. Posts with self-referential words like “I” and “we” tend to get more likes.

Posts published on Saturdays and Sundays get more likes than those posted during the week.
Content posted later in the day get more likes and shares — likes peak around 8PM EST, while shares peak around 6PM EST.
Deliberate pacing gets more attention.
Facebook pages versus groups: no data with groups/no privacy with pages
