The Escambia County School District’s main website is undergoing a transformation, and over the few months changes will be extended throughout the rest of the web site. The address for the District’s new page is www.escambiaschools.org, however, anyone using the old address (www.escambia.k12.fl.us ) should be automatically redirected to the new page.
Changes to the District’s website are made based on recommendations from the District’s Web Site Task Force, which is composed of twenty-three representatives from district departments and schools as well as the community. One of the goals of the Task Force was to make the District’s web site more user-friendly. As the District migrates content to the new design, visitors to the web site will see five main improvements:
- New design with common menus on all of the main district web site pages to enable easy navigation
- Expanded, alphabetical listing of resources for Students, Families, Staff, and Community
- Quick Links highlighting the most important information based on site usage statistics and input from district leadership
- Social media (beginning with Facebook and Google Calendar) to expand access to news and events
- Faster access to school web sites and consistent placement of common elements on all school web sites for ease of use
