One of the recent jobs I’m most proud of is my redesign for the Bethlehem Children’s School.
Their original site was full of tons of great content and a great resource for both existing and prospective parents, however the design was hard to navigate, slow, and very outdated. I was in the very rare position of having nearly total control over the job and so I stepped up to the role as more of an art director than a web designer… A challenge but also very fun. The new site has attracted tons of visitors, new and old, and generated a lot of buzz. We’re still working on filling in more of the content, and now that I’ve seen the WordPress way, I’m planning to convert the site over to a WordPress CMS. But first I have to get it hosted on a decent server. One thing at a time. In the meantime, BCS has a site that reflects the high caliber of their school and attracts more parents (and hopefully, in turn, increases enrollment).
In the words of school academic director Mary Patridge-Brown, “It’s like we’ve been starving for years, and you’ve come along and given us the most delicious food.”
