TRANSCRIPT

Building an A+ website means being familiar with the ins and outs of school life, from the burdens of administrators to the needs of parents. Each and every school website should help:

• students stay on top of their studies,

• parents stay connected,

• teachers provide quality education,

• administrators keep everything running smoothly, and

• communities stay connected.

Here are a few more qualities of a great educational site.

A well-designed website should reflect each school’s distinctive spirit and mission. Employing creative designs and responsive interfaces, it should be custom-built to serve the particular needs of each organization.

That’s why eSchoolView’s websites are:

• Smart

• Innovative

• Customized

• Responsive

A user-friendly interface guarantees that visitors, whether they be 8 or 80, will able to find what they need. In order to achieve that, an interface should have a clean design and menus that are:

• Intuitive

• Practical

The best sites allow for simple navigation so students, parents, grandparents, and teachers can find everything from grades to graduation schedules without racking their brains and yelling at their screens.

A well-conceived school website helps administrators do their jobs. That means incorporating online forms—emergency info, consent forms, etc.—that help streamline administrative processes. Nowadays parents can update their child’s information from one central, online location.

Having a good website also means featuring back ends that are easy to update. That way administrators can keep everyone up to speed with the latest and most critical information.

What if you could manage all of your facilities at the click of a button? With a common sense facilities management system, you can easily organize reservations, set reminders, avoid scheduling conflicts, and maximize your facility usage.

Your website should make it simple for you to schedule meetings and rent out your gym or auditorium, without ever double booking. With eSchoolView’s automated facility management process, you never have to worry again.

With more students using smartphones, and more parents expecting updates on the go, it’s important to have a website that works just as well on mobile devices as it does on desktops.

It’s also more important than ever to stay connected round-the-clock. With Instant Connect, everyone can receive important updates, alerts, and information at any time, on any device. Instant Connect allows you to send out:

• Emergency alerts

• Staff notifications

• Bus schedule changes

• And more

Your website should make it easy for you to generate revenue, so you can keep the lights on and the books open. From facilities management systems that allow outside groups to rent your facilities directly from your website, to online school stores that make e-commerce a breeze, your site should work for you.

With simple and secure checkout protected by encryption, eSchoolView helps you bring in money to keep your school running.

When it comes to building a reliable, accessible, and useful website for your school, you need to call in the professionals. Thankfully, eSchoolView has already done its homework, so you don’t have to work overtime.
