by Ed Schmidt

(Faculty and staff only)
If you
already have the rights to login and submit your own articles, be
sure to put an “ending date” so that old articles do not remain
visible.
|If you have a need to have your
own section on the website, see Ed About it.
If you need something posted on the website, use the following procedures:
- Email your article to Ed Schmidt at schmidte@putnam.k12.il.us
- Be sure it has a title
- Articles should be posted within 24 hours, if it’s something that needs to posted right away, let Ed know. If you check to see if your article has been posted and it’s not, let Ed know and he’ll re-submit it.
- Tell what section it belongs (High School, PCES, PCJH, etc.)
- Submit it to Ed in a word document or typed out in your email (do not submit articles on paper)
- Include a “start date” and “ending date”
- Be sure it is punctuated correctly, for it will be copied just as you have written it.
- If you need an old article updated, you can just submit the updates, otherwise all articles will be considered new articles.
- Contact Ed if you need old articles removed. Note: even though they are not visible on the website, they can still be accessed through the archive search.
- Be sure to report any errors you see on any of the articles on the website.
- Article may need approval by the principal or superintendent, if it’s something that needs approval, email it to them and once approved, email it to Ed.
- If your article has images, send them in the email along with the article. Don’t get carried away with too many images, 5 or less is fine. Too many images make the page load slower.
