District launches new website

December 9, 2011 – The Stillwater Central School District website has a fresh new face. This new site offers many of the same features visitors are used to — and more.

Aside from a new look, the site is better organized and is cutting-edge in meeting accessibility requirements for disabled users who are either visually impaired or lack the fine motor skills needed to use a computer mouse.

Some of the new features include:

• A to Z — This visual site index can help you find what you're looking for quickly. You can also go to the Search feature to type in specific search keywords.
• Academics — Find important information, such as a link to the district's NYS Report Card, Common Core Learning Standards, and HS Course of Study Guide.
• Alumni — Register in the new alumni database, look up old friends and classmates, and view reunion dates.
• Budget — Learn more about NY State's property tax levy cap legislation, view a budget glossary of terms, and more.
• Calendar — The new website uses Google's free calendar feature, enabling the district to add or change dates at any time. "Sync" the district's dates with your own personal Google Calendar.
• News Archives — View a continuously updated list of news and happenings in the district. All headlines are also added to the district homepage, and school pages when necessary.
• Pupil Personnel Services — Check out this page to see what's happening in the counseling center, health office, and special education department.

The Stillwater website is striving to be one of the key resources for students, parents and community members to find out what's going on. The website will continue to grow throughout the year. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please contact Webmaster Erin McNulty at emcnulty@scsd.org.
