The Kenai Peninsula Borough School District has designed a new website that aims to be more accessible and responsive following years of work and design. It’s close to launching and the district wants the community to preview the website during this soft rollout to offer feedback and help the design. Each page has a teal-colored bar in the top banner with an online website feedback link at the top right of the page.
Clayton Holland, KPBSD Superintendent spoke with KSRM saying:
“We’ve put out some information about that where folks can get on and check it out and get feedback if there’s anything that’s not working. That’s what we call bug bashing, making sure everything is where it needs to be before we fully switch over. This is taking quite a while, about two years of work and design. You’re invited to preview the website during this soft rollout for feedback. You can find that on our current website. There’s a link to it and we’d love to hear your thoughts about our new page. Really, this is going to be matching what our schools have done and it’s an easier design, easier to find things, and accessible for everyone.”
Holland said that with this new website, it’ll look like the school’s pages:
“It’d be very similar. I think the main difference on that is it had so many links and so many things over the years added to our old webpage and just determining what’s relevant anymore and what we need to keep, what works, and a link to countless documents and things from board meetings from going way back. It’s just that time to really pare it down and get it in line to where we need to be.”
The KPBSD webmaster is requesting feedback when you see missing content, outdated content, broken links, quick links, and what you like about it.
