What is a graduation site?

A personal platform to celebrate their senior year, accomplishments, and future endeavors.

Benefits beyond current social media platforms:

Sharing updates free from algorithms and advertising enables meaningful engagement with family and friends.

*You own all photography and content.

Ownership of yourchild’sname.com now establishes that your high school senior will have it for their future needs in college and careers.

Their personal .com is a perfect platform for building an online portfolio to showcase their talent and skills.

 For their senior year a grad site enables:

a curated online retrospective and graduation announcement for your 2026 high school senior

a parent blog for sharing childhood stories and photographs, updates and new announcements that is interactive with site visitors who may add comments

a digital footprint designed with intention that reflects personal style, offers privacy, and full ownership of all content

a personal platform to share reflections and advancements with family and friends that aren’t on social media

What are the fees?

My design fee for the site is $275, and I'll share specifics in our site agreement that details what's included. The site shown for Tela (on my site) is an example of what you get for $275. She selected font style, colors, layout, and style for her browser favicon.

The cost to host your .com will depend on which Squarespace plan you choose. Fees for the basic plan as listed on Squarespace are $192/year ($16/month) or pay $25/monthly. Tela’s site is on the basic plan. Upgrading after college is recommended.

We begin by purchasing your kid's .com on Squarespace; I'll help you set that up. Most of the domains cost $20 or less.

Q & A

Can my child’s site be private for now and public in the future? Yes.

Can the landing page be public and the blog posts private? Yes.

Will I have full access to the site and be able to upload my photos and blogs? Yes.

Are there options available if I don’t have time to post or am uncomfortable managing the site? Yes.

Why should we work with you to design this online platform?

I’m in this era with you! I’m a mom with two kids entering their senior years; one in high school and the other in college. I’m a storyteller, developmental editor, and site designer with a love for photography and personal narratives. The concept for senior sites is my original idea.
