Good web
content |
Sample pages |
|
Latest news: The
Web is a quick way
to broadcast the latest news from your school district.
There's no delay, and there's no printing and postage costs.
It also keeps your Web site fresh! |

|
| Fast
Faqs: The Q&A format is an ideal way to provide
basic information about your district. This can be
particularly helpful to prospective homebuyers. |
|
| Virtual
photo tours: Add life to your school Web site by taking
your viewers on a virtual photo tour of your classrooms or
special events. |

|
| On-line
newsletters: Rather than send out the traditional paper
newsletter, why not create an electronic newsletter for
those audiences that have e-mail and Internet access. |
|
| Feedback:
The Web is a good place to get feedback from your
community members. |

www.bocescareertech.org |
| School
closings: School closings and early dismissals can
quickly be broadcast out over the Web. A parent who is at
work and can't get to a radio or TV but has a computer would
be especially grateful for this feature. |
www.shenet.org |
| Attendance
zones & bus schedules: Where would my child
attend schools? How would he or she get there? These are
some very basic questions that new homebuyers and new
parents within your district would be happy to find on your
Web site. |

|
| Alumni
pages: Among the most likely visitors to your Web site
will be graduates from years gone by. An
alumni page, where they can register, check out what fellow
grads are doing and get the latest information on class
reunions is a real service to your graduates. |

| Sports
schedules & scores: Sports schedules (and all other
sports information) will be well received not only by
students and parents but also by the community at
large. |
bcsd.k12.ny.us
|
| Lunch
menus: A great hit with parents and students will be
easy-to-access lunch menus. You can also provide information
on and downloadable applications for free and reduced-price
lunches. |
www.albanyschools.org |
| Job
openings: What better service to your community than to
provide a list of job openings in your school district via
the Web. |

| Calendars:
Even though you may print and send out a school
calendar, the Web is a good place to offer a calendar that
reflects frequent updates. |

| Publications
& forms:
The Web is a good place to provide easy access to district
publications, as well as all kinds of forms,
ranging from student registration to job application. |

www.bhbl.org
www.niskayunaschools.org |
| Staff
directories: Make it easy for people in your
community to find who they are looking for. This can be done
in the form of a simple listing, or it could be presented
through a searchable database. |

www.capregboces.org
|
| Teacher
& department pages: The Web is a great vehicle for
individual teachers or whole departments to provide all
kinds of information to parents and students. |
www.schalmont.org
www.mohonasen.org
|
| Guidance
information: At the secondary level, the guidance
office is often the key point of entry for parents - i.e.,
the place to start when you are looking for help or
information. The same could be said for a top-quality school
guidance Web site. |
