Case Study: The New School achieves a lightning-fast, growth-ready website launch with Finalsite

The New School - Customer Case Study

The New School, a 400+ student independent STEAM school in Fayetteville, Arkansas, expanded to add an upper school and new facilities and needed a more grown-up website to reflect its changing program—fast. With the first ninth graders admitted and a tight timeline, the school faced the challenge of redesigning and migrating content quickly while keeping the site aligned with new academic priorities.

TNS leveraged its existing relationship with Finalsite, dedicated three internal staff members to the effort (project lead Liz Anderson, Website Coordinator Mary Kim Harp, and Director of Academic Technology Keith Cameron), and secured leadership buy-in. With Finalsite support, clear roles, and focused commitment, the team launched the new site in less than eight weeks (project start Dec 5, 2016; live Jan 20, 2017), delivering a smooth, rapid transformation.
