 About Us Adventist Church and School Connect began in late 2005 when the North American Division decided to offer every church and school a website. The goal was to encourage churches and schools in Bermuda, Canada, and the United States to use the Internet to reach their communities. The NAD asked AdventSource to add website development and support to the resources and services they already provided to churches. AdventSource staff provide all design, training, and website support, and AdventSource contracts with SimpleUpdates for use of their content management system, web servers, and backup services. Today ACC and ASC continue to grow, with new software updates, template selections, and features constantly being added.

User ReviewsDave Fairchild, Webmaster
“I have used SchoolConnect for two years now while maintaining our school's website. The built-in features allow me to spend more time creating content without having to spend time maintaining the framework. I use many of the built-in widgets, especially those related to the calendar and what's-new. There are also a wide variety of options that can be set for each web page, and I use these constantly. And as a web developer, I appreciate the ability to add my own HTML and CSS code behind the scenes as needed, while still retaining the template's general appearance. In short, SchoolConnect allows me to easily keep new content on the site without tons of work doing so.
But what I most appreciate is the assistance from the staff when I need help or have a question. I have a whole folder of helpful hints and advice from Lindsay and Lonny, and it makes it much easier to have them available at the touch of an email, so to speak. The help system also contains a good deal of information; I especially love the how-to videos.”http://midlandacademy.org What's New?Sponsors & Affiliates   |
