Proposed Changes

Review document. Changes recommended but not yet made, and the pages
that cannot be published until a steward supplies missing facts. The recommended way of keeping the site
maintained afterwards is a separate page: Support Model.

Pages That Cannot Be Published Without a Steward

31 pages in the mockup carry a visible Draft note. Each is a place where the source content
was missing, out of date, or asserted something that could not be verified. They fall into three groups.

Content Does Not Exist Anywhere

These cannot be drafted from existing material. Somebody has to supply the facts.

• Mission & Vision — the mission was found on the home page and is now in place. A vision statement still does not exist anywhere on the site.
• Affirmative Action — the Affirmative Action Officer and Title IX Coordinator must be named with contact details. Federal requirement. No name appears anywhere on the current site.
• Wellness Morning Meetings — the only source is a flyer from 2019 listing three group names with no description of any of them.
• Curriculum Overview — the curriculum maps sit in a shared drive folder that could not be read. The folder contents are needed to describe them.
• Staff Only Info — the current page is gated, so its contents are unknown.
• Payroll Information — two documents and no explanation. Needs the pay calendar and a contact.

Source Material Is Out of Date

Content was written from what exists, with the stale specifics deliberately left out. A steward
needs to supply current detail before publication.

• Assessments & Results — every document is from 2022-23.
• High School Scheduling — source names a former Principal and former Guidance Counselor, and contradicts itself on dates.
• Week of Respect — themes are durable and were kept; the 2019 dates were dropped.
• Fundraising & Class Trips — directs hardship enquiries to a former principal.
• Environmental — the most recent water quality report is over a year old and the pest management notice is from 2022-23. Both are annual obligations.
• Title 1 — the Right-to-Know letter still contains the literal placeholder “(enter district contact information.)”
• Health Curriculum — names a school nurse who does not match the nurse listed elsewhere on the site.

Written, But Needs Checking

Drafted from a real source and believed accurate, but asserting things a steward should confirm:
Athletic Offerings (17 community organization web addresses transcribed from an undated PDF, none
tested), Harassment Intimidation & Bullying (statutory timeframes stated from the Anti-Bullying Bill
of Rights Act — confirm against the adopted policy), Head Lice (no school position stated on returning
after treatment), Employee Benefits, Open Positions, Welcome & New Families, Learning from Home,
Student Resources, About FTS, Community Communications, Baseball, Softball, National Junior Honor
Society, Staff & HR.

Proposed Changes Not Yet Made

1. Merge NJSLA Information into Assessments & Results

Both pages now cover the same ground. NJSLA Information was “Coming soon!” on the current
site and had to be written from general knowledge, so it says nothing specific to FTS. One page would
serve families better than two thin ones.

2. Delete Teacher Webpages

It links to individual teacher pages that do not exist and renders an error. The restructure plan
allows either fixing the links or removing the page; there is nothing to fix, so it should go.

3. Amend Standard 3.1 to permit Level 3 under Athletics

The standard currently permits third-level navigation for Departments only. Athletics & Activities
needs it too — FTS Sports has eight team pages beneath it. The alternative is eight more items at
Level 2, which breaks the twelve-item cap.

4. Decide what Staff Only Info is

Standard 3.2 requires the sidebar and top navigation to match. A page the public can see listed but
cannot open is a poor experience. Either move it behind a staff login and drop it from public
navigation, or keep a public page that explains what is inside and how staff reach it.

5. Reconsider the Special Services flyout

Special Services has 19 third-level pages. The menu now renders them correctly, but a 19-item hover
menu runs past the bottom of a laptop screen and is hard to use. The content is good and well
maintained — this is a navigation question, not a content one. Options: group them under three or four
sub-headings, or drop them from the hover menu and rely on the section landing page and sidebar.

6. Rename the PDF library as documents are replaced

Link text across the site is descriptive and compliant. The underlying files are not — the
Affirmative Action complaint form is stored as AA_Complaint_Form (3), which Standard 2.2
names as an example of what is not acceptable. This is not worth a bulk exercise; rename files as they
are next updated.

7. Alt text sweep

79 images carry an alt attribute, so an automated check passes. Around half of the non-portrait
images have placeholder values like llll, 888 or a single space. Deferred by
agreement; worth doing in one pass rather than page by page.

8. Flowcharts as images

Several PDFs are diagrams rather than documents — the MTSS flow chart is the clearest example.
These would be better placed in the page as images with a text description alongside. Noted as a
phase 2 improvement.
