Events Calendar: A dedicated calendar to showcase upcoming school events and activities.
Faculty & Staff Directory: An organized directory to help visitors find faculty and staff information.
Individual Academic Portals: Dedicated login accounts for each school division, allowing administrators to manage and update their assigned pages independently.

The new WordPress website gave The New School a more organized and user-friendly online presence. The events calendar made school activities easier to explore, while the staff directory improved access to faculty information. Individual academic portals also helped streamline access to relevant resources.
