The Gloversville Enlarged School District captured an Award of Merit for its website in the 33nd annual Communications Contest sponsored by the New York School Public Relations Association (NYSPRA).

About one-third of the more than 300 NYSPRA entries earned awards in 2012, in a closely drawn judging by communications professionals from around the country. Awards will be presented to winners at the 2012 NYSPRA Awards Luncheon on October 26, during the 2012 convention of the New York State School Boards Association (NYSSBA) in Rochester.

This is the second year in a row the Gloversville web site has been honored with this prestigious award. In 2011, the district also received an Award of Merit. The awards have come since the site was redesigned in the summer of 2010.

The district’s web site continues to be the first and best source of information about Gloversville. Not only is the site full of up-to-date school-related information but the site also has a wealth of information about the district’s budget and academic programs. Visitors can also find an online calendar.

The site also includes several teacher and staff pages that contain a variety of classroom-specific information.

Traffic to the site saw more than 316,000 unique visitors during the 2010-11 school year.

Questions and comments regarding the web site are always welcome by our communications office. To contact Communications Specialists, Elizabeth Phillips and Craig Clark, please call 775-5702.
