Content Strategy & Proposed Sitemap
Good morning Jennie,
I hope you have been doing well since you last spoke with Alan.
My name is Ryan Hoch and my role here in Diocesan's Web Department is as a Content Specialist. This means, that in addition to going over what areas of your current website are staying or going, I also help you find the most effective way to layout your website. This not only helps us build you a website that is easier to edit and manage but also allows anyone visiting your website to accurately and consistently find the information for which they are looking.
Below are links to a Google document of your proposed sitemap. The proposed sitemap is what we suggest for your menu based on our previous experience and what would work best in terms of usability. The proposed sitemap is created to optimize the flow and look of your site.
You can edit the proposed sitemap however you would like, adding pages, removing pages, etc. The proposed sitemap will act as a guide for the content migration process. Please edit the document directly to ensure that the same edits stay throughout all versions and that the content migration process is accurate. Also attached below is a quick how to video on understanding how a sitemap is organized. I am available to meet via Google Meet to clear up any questions you may have as well, just reach out and let me know by replying to this thread.
Thank you for choosing Diocesan and we are very excited to begin creating you a new website.
Let me know if you have any questions,
Ryan Hoch

Hi Ryan,
Thank you for your email. Is your proposed site map a generic document that you want me to change? Right now it looks like it was created for our parish website, not our school. Here is our current school site - https://cardinalpacelli.org/cardinal-pacelli/. Our church site was completed by your company a year or so ago. We are looking at moving our school site to you. I just want to make sure we are on the same page.
Thanks,
Jennie Clark

Jennie,
It is a generic document. Can be changed to the organization. I can send along a generic sitemap for a school, but we would ask that you edit the document to make it fit your vision for your organization (in this case your school).
Would it be helpful for me to make a generic editable sitemap for a school rather than a parish?
Thank you,

Ryan,
I can use the one you sent. I just wanted to make sure that you knew we were a school. I will work on it today or tomorrow.
Thanks,

One more question...
I am a little confused about the button/Accordion option. Do you want me to list anything that is not plain text (e,g, links to internal pages, links to external sites)

the blue text is more for me. It denotes links/similar on a page instead of in the menu. If you send things over as you make it I can adapt it to that style and then send it back for final approval.
I am also available to met in a google meet if you'd like to be shown what it all corelates to.

I have updated the document you sent. I added the links on the pages in blue. Hopefully that was correct.
Also, we have another navigator on the top right of our site. See below...
