An Online High School within Princeton Public Schools

But in 2020, as interest in online learning soared and the competitive environment intensified, district leaders turned to CEL to rebrand the virtual school and website to create a more engaging platform for prospective students and their families. The site also includes login access to Skyward and Clever for current families.

Website Design & Enrollment Marketing

Website Content Management System powered by Finalsite

Once the website went live, geo-targeted paid social media advertising within Minnesota increased repetitions for ads in key markets. CEL also tested the effectiveness of Google Adwords, deciding ultimately that it was cost-prohibitive due to the high competition of keywords at that time. The upgraded website includes a new online course catalog, as well as student and staff stories that CEL curated, with short videos that could be used in paid advertising.
