Encouraging, Creating, and Strengthening the RSU 18 Web Presence
RSU 18 wanted an online presence that accurately reflected the excellent work being done in its educational communities. RainStorm helped RSU 18 move to the WordPress content management system from an outdated proprietary software, which enabled RSU 18 to better utilize new technology and showcase its learning environment.
RainStorm has been working for the past few years on a special website hybrid that brings K-12 educational organizations the best of the WordPress content management system and the power of school-focused tools that had been found before only in proprietary software. We call this combined system SchoolFlex — and RSU 18 is the latest Maine school system (China, Belgrade, Oakland, Rome, and Sidney) to launch a website using our SchoolFlex system!
- The multisite setup of SchoolFlex enables the administrators of the K-12 school district to control and update each of the school websites from one place.
- Convenient features such as network-wide aggregated news and events, a modern design, schedules, alerts, customizable quick links, and clear navigation increase RSU 18’s ability to effectively communicate
- Custom design focuses on what’s important to RSU 18’s story
- Beautifully displayed and integrated Google calendars
- Well-designed mobile experience, allowing them access to vital information while on the go
- Network-wide navigation for key items – bus schedules, nutrition, parent portal, and district contact
- Network-wide search offers keyword-based results pulled from every site in the network.
