Common Questions About This School District Intranet
What is this school district intranet built with?
The homepage is built with standard SharePoint web parts – News, Events, Image, and Text – combined with a custom theme and custom fonts that carry the district’s colors and identity. There is no custom code and no third-party tools on the page. This is the kind of clean, maintainable intranet Greg Zelfond builds for K-12 school districts and education organizations.
What’s included on the school district intranet homepage?
The homepage features district announcements and important updates, links to all district schools – elementary, middle, and high school sites – a districtwide calendar for school events and meetings, staff quick links, internal resources covering policies, systems, and instructional tools, and a teacher spotlight that highlights educator accomplishments and builds community across the district.
Does this design use any custom code or third-party tools?
No. Everything is out-of-the-box SharePoint – no custom code, no third-party add-ons. That matters for school districts especially: out-of-the-box intranets are stable, secure, and easy for a small IT team to maintain, and nothing breaks when Microsoft rolls out updates. Out-of-the-box is the only way Greg Zelfond builds.
Can this design be customized for our school district?
Absolutely. The colors, fonts, logo, and section layout are all tailored to your district’s brand. Greg adapts the layout to your schools and the systems your staff actually use – your student information system, learning management platform, HR and payroll tools, and curriculum resources – so quick links and school pages match your real district structure.
Will this intranet work on mobile devices?
Yes. SharePoint pages are responsive by design, so the homepage adapts automatically to phones and tablets. Teachers moving between classrooms, principals walking their buildings, and staff spread across multiple school sites can check announcements, the district calendar, and resources from any device – no separate app needed.
Can Greg build this intranet for our district?
Yes – this is exactly the kind of work Greg Zelfond does. As an independent SharePoint consultant and Microsoft MVP, he designs and builds out-of-the-box intranets like this one for K-12 school districts and education organizations, tailored to your brand, your schools, and the way your staff work.
