Our Lady of Mount Carmel School Launches New Website

December 16th, 2019


Our Lady of Mount Carmel School, a Catholic elementary school located in Meriden, CT, recently launched its newly redesigned website with the help of SoSimple Interactive.

Founded in 1944, the school is recognized as Central Connecticut's finest Catholic educational provider for children Pre-K through grade 8. In honor of its 75th anniversary, the school wanted to create a new website that would educate new parents about the school, its culture, and its offerings, as well as provide a hub of information for current families. The school selected SoSimple Interactive to design its website due to our easy-to-use yet robust content management system. Our affordable school Theme program also enabled OLMC to enjoy a beautiful website while staying within their school budget.

The newly launched website features many vibrant photos depicting student life at OLMC, the school’s educational excellence, and its culture of inclusion. The website includes information about academics by grade, school athletics, the many activities at OLMC, and directories of the school’s staff, the Home and School Association, and the School Board. Links to the parish and the Archdiocese of Hartford can also be found.

New families can learn more about Our Lady of Mount Carmel School through its “Our Community Says” testimonial page, reading first-hand reviews from current parents and students. The website also includes a Contact form, Online Application form, and Schedule a Tour form, making inquiries and enrollment easy for new students.

Current families will find a plethora of information in the Family section of the website, including important student documents, classroom pages, hot lunch page, school news, links to school apparel and uniform vendors, and a convenient payment page. Password protection adds an extra layer of privacy for students and families. Donors will find gifting easy with the online Donation form. And, the school Calendar with direct feed to the site’s home page keeps the entire community up-to-date on school events.

For mobile visitors, the new OLMC website is built with a responsive, mobile-optimized design. This allows the site to automatically reformat content to be displayed optimally across all viewing platforms - desktop, tablet or smart phone. The new website also utilizes SoSimple’s Content Management System, allowing Our Lady of Mount Carmel School to self-manage its site, easily updating content and adding new photos throughout the school year.
