Private School & Boarding School Portal
Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Ourkids.net, Canada's premiere online resource for private schools has just released its next generation web design.
The completely revamped website is not only redesigned but also includes the following noteworthy additions:
The newly refurbished advanced school search allows parents to drill down into regions and school specializations, along with a clickable, searchable map listing private schools from Canada, the United States and internationally.
A brand new community section includes areas for parents and students. The parent to parent community allows parents to ask and answer questions about private schools, boarding schools, Montessori, faith-based and other options and issues in private education. Some hot topics include advice on choosing a school, academics and curriculum and other critical decisions. The Student Zone highlights contests and videos and promotes student bloggers from private schools.
A deep, newly revised private school research guide, updated for 2009, provides an overview of types of schools, information on applying and on paying tuition. The private school searhc can be found at http://www.ourkids.net/
Over a hundred new pages provide detailed information and highly targeted listings of schools. Parents can chose from the exact school they desire, based on region and type of school. Some examples include targeted pages on Ontario Montessori schools, special needs schools in Alberta and schools with ADHD Support. For example, see http://www.ourkids.net/
All of this is part of Our Kids Media's continued devotion to making it as easy and as comfortable as possible for parents to investigate private school options, no matter where they are or what kind of school they are looking for. The company has shown explosive growth over the past year, with a website that now hosts 40,000 unique visitors per month and a listing of 225 private schools from across Canada this year. Both of these are highs in the company's ten year history of promoting private education option to Canadians.
The redesigned website is ready for review by parents and media professionals. See http://www.ourkids.net.
