New Orleans Public Schools
Thursday, October 23rd, 2008
Many of our team members grew up either in New Orleans or nearby suburbs, so we have a special place in our heart for the crescent city. We were honored to have the opportunity to build the New Orleans Public School (NOPS) system website after Hurricane Katrina.
The website at www.nops.k12.la.us has a lot of functionality “under the hood” with our custom Ruby on Rails Content Management System (CMS). The CMS allows NOPS personnel to efficiently update all portions of the website using a “what you see is what you get” editor.
The Crescent City's place for education information.
If you know how to use Microsoft Word, you can use our CMS! We also built a user module that allows a NOPS administrator the ability to manage user permissions of personnel so that the department heads only have the opportunity to update the pages of the site that apply to their department. To learn more about the custom content management solutions we have to offer, feel free to contact Brian directly at

We really enjoyed working on this project as it gave us the opportunity to put together the complete branding of the organization. The Louisiana Children’s Education Alliance is a non-profit designed to educate parents, community leaders, and policy makers about how providing educational options to parents can empower them to chose the best education for their children, and have a positive impact on citizens and businesses in the community.
We used to walk to class, up hill, in the snow...
Link-fest!
