I have a real hard time reading it. . .

EDIT: On second viewing, I have a comment about the link lines (didn't see them at first). Sometimes html and css allow you to do weird things - this doesn't mean you should do them. There is a certain amount of convention that one should take into account (i.e. links are underlined).

Also, you may want to check and see if you have to be 508 compliant if you are a public school.

Section 508 requires that sites provide equal or equivalent access to everyone, including:

1. The visually impaired (blind, color-blind, and low-vision).
2. The deaf and hearing impaired.
3. The physically disabled.
4. People with photosensitive epilepsy.

EDIT: (I have some pretty good info on this. If interested, PM me)

You need a better layout. There's no form to your madness. TABLES would do you well. ;)

Headline blue doesn't go well with the black text... try white text on that background. And make a slightly more complex menu system and throw it either on the left side or in the header image. Lastly, change up font size between regular text and header text. That's where I'd start.

I agree.

ALSO it's very hard to read. Fonts bigger, use contrasting colors, not blue and black. Jeez...nobody taught you anything.
