Starr King Elementary School
Here’s the web site for Starr King school that I put together using WordPress last month. It’s going public this weekend at the school district enrollment fair. It came to a surprisingly small effort, compared with what it used to take to make a decent-looking web site. WordPress takes care of a whole lot of the hard work for you, and Dreamhost (which I’m also using for this humble site) does some pretty fine hosting, especially their one-click install script, which puts up some fairly daunting applications (like WordPress, Subversion, PHP) almost automatically.
Your site is fantastic, great job.
I am looking to put up something similar for our school. Can you let me know what theme you used to build it? Did you use standard wordpress or MU.
Thanks,
Thanks! It’s suprising how easy it is once you get the basics of WordPress. (What is MU?) I’m using fSpring widgets 1.0 by Fredrik Fahlstad for that site.
If I think about it, I might be able to figure out how to zip up the whole template, with my customizations and tweaks, and send it to you by email. You would then upload it to your host and add your content. I’ll give it some thought tonight. It sounds scarier than it is. Write me at ted@jue-kuster.com.
Hey there Ted, I’m also doing our elementary school’s website and I LOVE what you did with yours. Would you mind zipping and sharing with your southern neighbors here in Burbank, CA?
