Our Mission

Content Management System (CMS) is the easiest website management tool on the planet!
Gabbart Communications provides more than just a website. We provide teachers with the
tools they need to enhance the educational experience in a digital age. Our complete CMS
suite includes 25+ page types to allow you to focus on the content and not the technical.
Drag & Drop pages, pictures, and modules where you need them. Publish homework and
lesson plans with standards, documents, videos, and photos. Keep parents informed with
text and email alerts with E-Notes.
To effectively achieve our mission, teacher training and support is essential. We have
trained tens of thousands of teachers on our CMS, Lesson Plan System, and E-Notes. This
has resulted in enhanced communications, increased parental involvement, and improved
grades for nearly a million students we serve.

Overview
Our CMS has been custom designed for schools. It is the easiest CMS on the planet. We designed the CMS so that anyone from 7 to 70 or novice to Webmaster can create their own web
pages. We include over 25 page types to choose from, so you can build as many pages as you
need and only have to worry about the content and not the technical. If you can imagine it, it
can be built with a couple of mouse clicks. It is so easy that teachers can have content wealthy
web pages with minimal training. Webmasters can add widgets, iFrame websites within the
school site, and even have the option to edit html code to modify the page content as needed.

WHY

Content Management System
Gabbart Communications is different from other web hosting providers because of the
personal relationship we form with our schools. Having a dedicated sales/trainer/support
person provides accountability and a personal touch to the school district. A 99% renewal
rating since 2007 means we have a lot of satisified customers.
Training & Support
Training and Support is our #1 priority. We can come to your school and train your Website
Administrators, Instructional Technologist, and / or Teachers. Our teacher training classes are
both motivational and technical. We focus time discussing WHY teachers need to have a website, content ideas, and how to create pages and add content. Our trainers develop a good
relationship with your teachers and staff so that they feel very comfortable calling us when
they need support. At the conclusion of the class, teachers are given their trainers personal
cell phone number. When they call for support, they actually get to talk to the person who
trained them. They will not be talking to a call center. Gabbart Communications also provides
FREE regional training classes for your website administrators every summer.
Joining Your Team
Gabbart Communications becomes an extension of your IT department, by supporting your
webmaster, school administrators, and teachers. We remove the website related headaches
from your IT Department and School Administration, allowing them to focus on other tasks.

If you are looking for an easy website to navigate and edit that is backed
with a great support staff, Gabbart Communications is the only company
you need to use. Period.
Technology Director • Laverne Public Schools • Oklahoma
“
We just partnered with Gabbart in Summer 2014. We can already tell the sense of pride in our website
from our students, faculty, and community. Our Superintendent has received positive feedback from all
directions, and I have even received random Facebook messages from members in the community just to
simply show their gratitude for the new website. It is amazing how far we’ve come in a short time and
looking forward to it evolving even more. I must say that when you select Gabbart, you don’t just gain
another vendor...you also gain friendships.
“
Technology Coordinator • Berryville Public Schools • Arkansas
“
Finally a company who understands the demands of schools and what they
need to customize their school websites! My staff and administrators are
fabulously pleased! No matter who I call at Gabbart, their commitment to
respectful friendly service is tops bar none else! The friendly, fast
customer service beats all expectations you could possibly imagine. I feel
like I’m calling family to help when the Gabbart staff jumps to the rescue!
Thrilled to be able to assign permissions to those who are up close and
personal with their own school sites and can keep them the flavor and
personality of their student body. It has freed me from micromanaging
the total site!
“
Technology Coordinator • Eureka Springs Public Schools • Arkansas
Gabbart Communications customer service can’t be beat! Everyone I have ever spoken with has been
very helpful and extremely courteous. Whenever I have had a question the person who answers the
phone can help. (No being transferred to higher level support) I had never set up or managed a web
page before, Gabbart made it easy!

GABBART?
IT Director • Shelbyville ISD • Texas
“
Gabbart support team is available almost 24/7. No problem is too simple or too
complex. Members of their expert staff are always willing take the extra step to
make sure the website functions and looks the way we have envisioned. Gabbart’s
team welcomes and accepts suggestions about updates, changes, etc. to their
product. They are always striving to make improvements that make the process of
keeping students and parents informed easier to accomplish. “
Campus Webmaster & Teacher • Tuttle Public Schools • Oklahoma
“
If you have previously used another web hosting service, either in-house or through another company,
Gabbart’s Website excels far above any other website company! Just like with any other technology, you
want it to be efficient, flexible, and user friendly. My Gabbart site is all of that and so much more. Not
to mention, our graphic designer was awesome! She was revising, designing, and keeping in touch with
me faster than I could answer her next question.
“
Assistant Superintendent • Clinton Public Schools • Oklahoma
“
“
Our overall satisfaction with Gabbart Communications could not be
greater. The ease of their program, their incredible customer service and
the wonderful graphics they have available provide for us the ability
to offer our community a well-designed, up-to-date and informative
website. We could not reach our parents and students anywhere near as
effectively without the invaluable service from Gabbart Communications.
First Grade Teacher • USD 265 Goddard • Kansas
“
“
I love that Gabbart Communications has made it easy to make my website my own. What was once
something that I was required to do for my school and district, has now become an integral part of
my classroom. I don’t know what I would do without it! My website through Gabbart has allowed for a
seamless home-to-school connection, so what I teach at school can then be extended when kids get
home. It also makes my life easier as a teacher, allowing me to house all of the information that I want
everyone to know in one place. Gabbart has made creating and implementing a website for my class
both fun and easy. I like the fact that once you put the time and effort in initially, you are able to easily
manipulate things at a later date.

WHAT
CLIENTS SAY
WHY GABBART?
Superintendent • Hudson ISD • Texas
“
Prior to partnering with Gabbart Communications, we had great vision for
our site but did not have the tools or support necessary to set that vision in
motion. Gabbart provided those tools that allowed us to communicate with
students, parents and community through our website. Since partnering with
Gabbart in 2011, we have not looked back; we have only looked forward
to the possibilities that this partnership has to offer!
“
Superintendent • USD 494 Syracuse • Kansas
“
We have been working with Gabbart for two years now, and have no intention of changing that scenario
regardless of E-rate changes. In addition to an eye-pleasing and functional user-friendly website, the program
is full of useful tools. It is a very powerful management system that includes a parent notification system,
integrated student and staff e-mail options, and lesson planning programs that are aligned to our state’s
curricular standards. Gabbart’s customer service is second to none. They know us by name and have been
very responsive to every request we have made, quickly and effectively. I highly recommend Gabbart
Communications to any school district interested in a quality website service.
“
Director of Technology • Friona ISD • Texas
“
“
Frankly, there is no way Friona ISD is going to think about changing web
providers. Everything about Gabbart’s service is top-notch. Teachers love the
ease of use, parents love all the new information that is available at their
fingertips, and our Webmasters are thrilled with all the options available.
Gabbart’s Customer Service is ridiculously awesome and every single employee
is helpful, has a bright smile and lots of tips and tricks. Working with Gabbart
Communications is one of the best decisions we have made for Technology at
Friona ISD.
Web Master • Crockett ISD • Texas
“
“
Crockett ISD changed our website host this year to Gabbart and we could not be more pleased and excited
about the change. We have had outstanding service from the very beginning. Frankie has answered every
call, text, email that he has been sent and the other folks have also gone above and beyond when we
have need helped. We can upload pictures right from our phone when at sporting events, FFA events or
other school related events. The thing that I have found most useful so far is the way that we can add
information or pictures to the site, give it a starting date and ending date and the site automatically turns
it on and off. I never have to worry about did I take that off the webpage yet or not. Our school and our
students are shown in such a positive way through the website! People only have to goggle or search for
CISD, CHS, Crockett Bulldogs and through Gabbart they come straight to our site. We are all so proud of
the way the site looks and how user friendly it is…Thanks Gabbart Awesome Job!

WHY
GABBART?
WHAT
YOU GET
Gabbart Communications provides a custom designed District Website that is
dedicated to the needs of the District. Calendars are integrated together,
providing a simple solution to share information. A Campus Selector makes
navigating from the district to individual campuses very simple.
E-Notes replace paper handouts that never make it home. E-Notes are E-Mail
and Text messages sent directly to parents & students. When an E-Note is added
to the website, people can subscribe for information to be sent to them. Subjects
subscribed to can include: District, Campuses, Organizations, Athletics, Classes, Teachers, etc.
School Administrators use E-Notes to send messages about upcoming events, school
cancellations, and news that involve the school. Teachers use E-Notes to notify parents about
upcoming tests and classroom projects.Coaches send practice schedules and let parents know
when they will be returning from games.
Lesson Plans
Teachers can easily display their current lesson plans or choose to use our
built-in lesson plan page type. As teachers build their curriculum library
through out the year it will be available year after year. Once created, lessons
can be emailed to their Principal or a Parent. Also, Lesson Plans can be subscribed to so
that when lessons are added or updated, it will be modified on recipients calendar or phone.
Each lesson provides a personal notes area that only the teacher can see, so she can reflect
on the lesson and make notes for future years.
