Hopkins Public Schools is an award-winning school district with a K-12 population of about 7,700 students, serving the western metro area of Minneapolis.
Hopkins had a very large collection of disparate websites that needed to be re-imagined as a unified, cohesive site. Gorton Studios planned, designed, and developed a new site that enabled stylistic and brand consistency.
To make this 10,000-page plus site navigable, we created a simple—but flexible—menu system and a straightforward page layout that could accommodate many needs. We also created a sophisticated calendar system that worked for both school administrators and district-wide editors.
