Take a look: Newly redesigned district and school websites
(01/15/2021) District and school websites have a new look. Student, parent/guardian and community visitors will all have an improved experience. A few of the highlights include:
- An updated site map prioritizing key content, which was structured using a variety of data sources including staff, student and parent/guardian feedback.
- More simplified, purposeful information.
- Fewer pages to sift through with the use of a mobile-friendly menu style on subpages.
- Increased interactivity on mobile devices.
- Similar experiences by all visitors, including those who are disabled or non-English speaking.
“The new website look meets the needs of our community like never before,” said Kay Villella, assistant director of communication and public relations, who oversees Anoka-Hennepin’s websites. “A tremendous amount of data informed content organization and the entire website incorporates today’s best practices.”
Families still have the ability to check grades, meal balances and register for co-curricular activities as before. In fact, Anoka-Hennepin is working toward expanding these e-services as much as possible.
Website work since December 2019 has included research, design and site map updating. Content consolidation has also taken place and will continue in the weeks ahead.
The School Board prioritized making a plan for Anoka-Hennepin communications and branding through a 2019-20 strategic priority. 2014 was the last time the district debuted a new look to its websites.
