YES Prep Public Schools is made up of nineteen campuses across Houston, serving over 14,000 students from 6th grade through 12th grade. Seeking a more intuitive and user-friendly website experience for current and prospective families, YES Prep chose Finalsite for its easy-to-use CMS and ability to provide an ADA-compliant, mobile-first design.
YES Prep's new custom design includes primary and secondary menu navigation that is easy for users to follow. On the homepage, you can find a slider including Recent News, Announcements, and Blog Posts that encourage families to learn more about the school's values, as well as infographics and design elements that break up the text and provide a visually-pleasing experience. We love the consistent branding throughout the entire website—it helps maintain the school's professionalism and sheds light on its dedication to excellence!

The bold and immersive Felsted website represents our third collaboration with the school to bring their online presence to life. Every iteration has pushed creative boundaries and this one is no different. The website has recently received a Platinum award for excellence in design at the 2018 international dotCOMM Awards. Key to the website’s success has been its confident focus on modern school life.
Felsted School has a long and rich history, but the website captures the experience of today to make the school more relatable for new families. This is achieved through sharp minimal graphics, energetic media and emotive messaging. Subtle animated effects are then employed to tie these elements together and guide visitors through the story.
