The MCPS Web consists of servers at Carver Educational
Services Center (CESC) in Rockville, Maryland, that
host content for schools and offices. The servers are
managed by the Web Services Team and the Office of Strategic
Technologies and Accountability. The Web site is composed
of many smaller sites representing schools and offices,
most with their own webmasters. Principals and office
administrators are responsible for content published
to their sites.
The Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) Web site
exists to inform the community about and to engage
it
in our joint mission to provide a high-quality education
to all children. We use the site to publish as much
information about MCPS as possible and to enhance two-way
communication between the district and community.
Specifically,
the site exists to—
- provide information to staff,
students, parents, and community members;
- collect data and enable users
to search and display data;
- display student work; and
- provide information and materials
for curriculum and instruction in various disciplines.
- We manage and maintain the servers
to ensure optimal performance and security as well
as back up data. See Hosting.
- We create and supply technologies
and tools that facilitate Web publishing, enhance
productivity, and promote interactivity. See Publishing
Tools, Site
Utilities, and
Web Applications.
- We create the site template and
information architecture and update the content on
the home page and other critical pages. See How
To Use the MCPS Web Template.
- We offer support and training
to schools and offices with questions about Web publishing
and development. See Webmaster
Training.
