I managed to design and post the new website for Excellent school. The object of this site is to inform people who have donated money about the progress as well as giving some basic information about the school. I bought the domain name, excellentcarecenterandschool.org (a bit long, but the best one I could get) and payed about 60 euros for that. Then, when I wanted to publish the site, they asked for another 60 euros to host the site! I got quite upset because everywhere I read that this was a totally FREE service..... I managed to charge it to my dad's Amex card (after all it's for a good cause). Now I have the domain for two years and the hosting for one year and feel safe.
I think the homepage came out nice, and being the administrator I can go in and edit it whenever I want to. This is going to be a great help in my work.
I also struggled a bit with how to handle the privacy issues. The images posted on the page are mainly on people I know, and I've asked for their permission, but what about all the kids? I need to have a talk with George and ask for his advice on how to handle this. It makes me feel better that I suspect that the students will be glad to be seen on the page because it's purpose is ultimately to raise money for them.
