Scott Fitzgerald once wrote that “life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall,” and while October may signal a shift toward cooler days (maybe not <em>this</em> year...) many schools are keeping things warm and welcoming with fresh website redesigns that beautifully capture their stories and values. </p> <p>From captivating mobile-friendly user experiences to vibrant visuals and thoughtful content, these new sites are designed to connect with their communities and inspire visitors with every click.</p> <p>Let’s review the design, content, and user experience of Finalsite's latest <a data-page-name="Independent Schools" href="/fs/pages/7123" target="_blank">independent school website launches</a> and see how these schools are well-positioned for the year ahead.</p> <figure class="fsImage"><picture><img alt="Catherine Cook School homepage mockup on a laptop" data-image-sizes="[{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_1/v1730888697/finalsite/pvu0mtslb29xbz5zhvrm/Catherine_Cook_School_homepge_mockup.png%22,%22width%22:256},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_2/v1730888697/finalsite/pvu0mtslb29xbz5zhvrm/Catherine_Cook_School_homepge_mockup.png%22,%22width%22:512},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto,t_image_size_3/v1730888697/finalsite/pvu0mtslb29xbz5zhvrm/Catherine_Cook_School_homepge_mockup.png%22,%22width%22:800},{%22url%22:%22https://resources.finalsite.net/images/f_auto,q_auto/v1730888697/finalsite/pvu0mtslb29xbz5zhvrm/Catherine_Cook_School_homepge_mockup.png%22,%22width%22:1200}]" data-resource-description="" data-resource-filename="Catherine_Cook_School_homepge_mockup.png" data-resource-uuid="1342fa05-cff9-42e7-89c2-36c4e056beeb" src="" /></picture></figure> <h2><a href="https://www.catherinecookschool.org/" target="_blank">Catherine Cook School</a></h2> <p>Catherine Cook School's recently launched website brings a fresh and engaging experience for visitors, as nearly every pixel is branded with the Kelly Green color scheme, a nod to the city of Chicago. Right on the homepage, full-width video panels grab your attention, supported by additional inline videos to guide users' scrolls.</p> <p>The site’s vertical scrolling keeps encouraging visitors to learn about Catherine Cook’s unique approach to “educating the whole child,” which emphasizes academics and social-emotional learning. Key calls-to-action (CTAs) include a rotating circular button for scheduling a tour and connecting with admissions, as well as an expandable section that highlights recent Instagram posts and upcoming events.</p> <p>In the "Beyond the Classroom" section, visitors can explore opportunities outside of academics, like after-school programs, signature trips, service learning, and guest speakers.
