Frequently Asked Questions

 

What is the procedure for changing access rights?

Each school with a virtual server has a designated Webmaster, who is named by the school principal. The webmaster is the school's primary web site administrator and contact person for the district school/class web program. When other staff members need access to edit web pages, the webmaster can request that access rights be changed — this request must be in writing (e-mail is preferred) and must be directed to Maggie Whittington at maggie.whittington@fayette.kyschools.us.  No changes will be made unless the request comes from the school webmaster or principal. If the webmaster resigns and a new one needs to be appointed, the request must come from the principal. No exceptions will be made to these rules!

We want to establish web pages for all our staff, for clubs and departments, and so forth.  What is the procedure?

Teacher subwebs are not housed on school webs. All teacher subwebs district-wide are located at http://staff.fcps.net. Contact Maggie Whittington at maggie.whittington@fayette.kyschools.us to request a new teacher subweb. Please Note: Do not link to a teacher's website which is housed on a server other than http://staff.fcps.net.

Subwebs for clubs, departments, etc., are located on the school website. One common strategy employed by school webmasters for managing subwebs might involve granting a teacher right to maintain a website for a department, a club or an athletic team. Another might be to grant a parent or other outside volunteer right to maintain a website for an auxiliary school organization, such as the band or an athletic team. (In that case, you will need to request an NT account be created for the volunteer.) If the school webmaster has given permission for someone else to edit web pages on the school website, a subweb must be set up. Contact Maggie Whittington at maggie.whittington@fayette.kyschools.us to request a new school website subweb.

What is my password to gain access to our website?

The account you use to access your website is your Fayette NT account; in other words, the same account you use to access your email. Whatever user ID and password that is will also work for your website.
