Description: When the Orchestral Director of the Nazareth Area School District’s String Program asked me to create a website for her, I couldn’t refuse (I really couldn’t – she’s my wife). In all seriousness, Laura wanted to create a site that would allow her to easily post and update information for her students and parents and serve as a critical linkage for home-school communication.
I decided to use WordPress as the engine for the site because the interface is very easy to learn and I knew from past experience that it had the core functionality that would allow it to accomplish everything it needed to with a little creative coding. The site features a fully functional event / activity calendar, the blog which is used to post news and homework assignments and a lot of other features that every teacher needs to have a well-rounded website. The coding for this site was done in Coda and all of the graphics were created with Gimp.
