District moves to FinalSight website to simplify navigation; feedback form and calendar updates highlighted
Summary
District communications staff showed the board a new district website hosted by FinalSight, emphasizing simplified navigation, a feedback form and school-managed calendars that update automatically from Google Calendars.
District staff demonstrated the school district’s new website platform (FinalSight) during the Oct. 13 board meeting, saying the redesign aims to simplify navigation, improve search and give schools control over their calendars.
The presenter (introduced as Miss Tollman) said the previous site was “big and clunky” and that the new design follows a “less is more, simpler is better” approach. Staff member Lenny Lou was credited with evaluating vendor options and compiling pros and cons; Zach was credited with creating video compilations featured on school landing pages.
Key changes listed for the public include: a feedback form linked on the community page that sends submissions to district web staff for daily review; an improved search function to locate documents and links more reliably; and an upgraded calendar system where individual schools manage Google Calendars that automatically feed the district site. The presenter invited the board and public to use the feedback form for missing or incorrect links.
Board members complimented the videos and the simplified layout and said they look forward to follow‑up refinements in November. No formal action was required.
