w3sights recently redesigned the Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner School’s web site. Check it out! The home page was laid out using a grid, the school’s red color, and great photographs taken by parent photographers. Because the page is composed of WordPress Widget areas, there is a lot of flexibility and responsiveness built right into the design. The overall result is vibrant, as one visitor recently commented.
Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner School
Great Barrington Waldorf High School
I’m very happy to say that the Great Barrington Waldorf High School, where my son Harry is finishing his freshman year, has a new web site designed around the school’s colors and logo. The site has been using WordPress for a number of years, so redesigning was a matter of selecting a new theme and customizing that theme. I selected the Education Child theme in the Genesis Framework from StudioPress which I love working with! The site also has a number of new features, I’ve added a school calendar and am using a widget which displays today’s and upcoming events, in the sidebar. I’ll be adding more features, making some information handy and readily available to parents, both current and prospective, as well as students, and definitely more photos throughout the site.
Hawthorne Valley School
w3sights has redeveloped Hawthorne Valley School’s web site so that it now uses WordPress. The revamped website enables staff and faculty at the school to manage content more easily and update the website more regularly, making it as responsive as possible to the needs of parents and students. Using WordPress also allows for us to easily add functionality, such as future plans for building a password protected area for parents.
Note that here is the old Home page, also designed by w3sights. Visit the new Hawthorne Valley School site and let me know what you think!
Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner School
The web site for the Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner School was developed using WordPress as a Content Management System. The Home page features a News and Events category in which the 5 most current news and events posts automatically appear. In addition, the content throughout the site can easily be updated now that the site is based on WordPress! Some new features that I added to the site were WordPress categories for Alumni Profiles, Parent Perspectives, and Mosaic Newsletters, along with News and Events. WordPress is designed to be Search Engine Optimization (SEO) friendly and this is as important for a school as it is for a business.
Mountain Laurel Waldorf School
w3sights redesigned the Mountain Laurel Waldorf School using WordPress so that the site could be easily updated at the school. The site features artwork done by an alumnus and many photographs taken by a professional photographer and parent at the school. I set up a random image generator on the Home page. The four most recent news and events items will automatically be displayed on the home page, as well. The site is based on the Revolution Pro Business WordPress theme.
