Blue Springs needs multiple innovative applications in order to meet the school district’s vast technology requirements. With their tremendous growth and potential to continue to expand, they have decided to partner with AllofE Solutions to implement multiple advanced solutions. These applications are:

• A Content Management system to provide them with the ability to easily and fully control their web site content.

With the completely user-friendly functionality of ContentM, very little training was required. Within a day the district’s administration was able to begin using the site and enter users and new site content. They were able to disperse site content responsibility across departments and user levels which allowed teachers to manage their own home pages and their class pages. The site gave students access not only to their school calendars and lunch menus but also to their class homework assignments. Each school was given the ability to manage their own content for their individual calendars, PTAs, and lunch menus. And all content could be previewed prior to ever appearing on the site which helped to ensure accuracy. The district was able to host and manage their own web-site with the most user friendly functionality for site wide spell checking, link validation, and search and replace tools to make the process quick and simple. Web-site management had never been easier and more reliable.
