New Schools for New Orleans needed a reliable web design agency to deliver a quality, custom-built website that meets the branding needs of this successful non-profit.

The Project
New Schools for New Orleans (NSNO) has made funding a priority for a number of years with the hopes of growing and expanding public education in the area. NSNO receives national attention for their programs and efforts and serves as a model for other public education nonprofits nationwide to better serve their school systems. NSNO is a nonprofit that is constantly on the forefront of public education funding, and as one of the primary nonprofit drivers of public education in the Greater New Orleans area, it was important for the Gatorworks team to build a site that reflects this in all aspects.
Focus Around a New Brand
NSNO finished a rebrand project before starting the website project with Gatorworks, and one of the first goals of this project was to design the site around these new brand standards. We ensured this was properly executed during our design phase of the new project, ensuring the new brand standards made it to all aspects of the website in dynamic and effective ways.

Restructured Resource Section
One of the main functions of the NSNO site is to effectively showcase resources for various initiatives with year-over-year data focused on both funding and results from schools and students. To execute this, we built various page parts with unique design aesthetic capabilities where this data can be updated in the content management system (CMS) in a very user-friendly manner.

ADA Compliance and User-Friendly CMS
Another primary goal of the new website was to deliver an ADA compliant design while also ensuring the final website would be built with a user friendly CMS and provide ease with updates. Not only did we ensure that the website was built with user-friendliness at the top-of-mind, we also ensured that the final design was created using a variety of ADA compliance tools to ensure many visual requirements were met.
Project Summary
Public education in any community is important, and having the opportunity to make an impact in this area can be so fulfilling. Overall, this was an impactful experience for all members involved on the Gatorworks team. With the new site focused so heavily on effective displays of data and numbers for campaign initiatives, we believe this site helps set the foundation for future initiatives and progress for years to come.
