The school principal is ultimately the person responsible for a school website and its contents. The principal delegates the daily responsibility for maintaining the school website to the school webmaster.
What is the procedure for naming a school webmaster?
Each school has a designated Webmaster, who is a regular member of the school staff, named by the school principal. If the webmaster resigns and a new one needs to be appointed, the request must come from the principal. This request must be in writing (e-mail is preferred) and must be directed to Maggie Whittington at maggie.whittington@fayette.kyschools.us. No exceptions will be made to this rule.
What is the procedure for changing access rights?
The webmaster is the school's primary website administrator and contact person for the district school/class web program. When other staff members need access to edit web pages, the school 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. No exceptions will be made to this rule.
What is the procedure for establishing web pages for our staff?
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.
What is the procedure for establishing subwebs for clubs and departments, etc.?
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 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.
