Kernersville Elementary on World-Wide Web
"Have you been wondering when our
town, and our school system will arrive in the 21st century?
KERNERSVILLE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL is there! We now have a professionally
designed and maintained web site on the Internet: http://mts.admin.wsfcs.k12.nc.us/kvillees/index.html
Two weeks ago, Kernersville Elementary School's site went
live. It is packed with information not only for parents,
but also for students, faculty, and especially the community....
Designed by Rich Blakemore (www.RichsWebDesign.com)
pro-bono, KES's site will be a great asset. When you a parent,
have a question about an upcoming event and it is midnight,
what have you done in the past? Waited until the next day,
called the school, gotten a busy signal, bothered the secretaries,
or even worse, bothered a teacher? NOT ANYMORE! Check
the web site!
What happens when it starts to snow at midnight, and you are
not sure about school the next day? Are you going to watch TV
... all the way down to the WSFCS announcement? NO! Are you
going to waste time and listen to the radio for 20-30 minutes?
NO! Check the web site! ..."

"Local Web Designer Open for Business"
If you want a professional web site for your business, you can
now turn to Rich's Web Design. Rich Blakemore recently started
his own business because, "Kernersville has many businesses,
and very few of them have a quality web site. There are plenty
of web sites that are homemade or of poor quality."
Rich's Web Design already has a few clients including a
local chiropractor, a medical products business, a High Point
furniture business, a local engineer and others. He also can
take an existing site and redesign it. Information regarding
Rich's Web Design services, procedures, and prices, can be
found at www.RichsWebDesign.com . Rich hopes to gain many
new clients in the Kernersville area as well as others in
the Triad.
