Transition to Episerver

Ektron (Tron) was phased out and replaced with Episerver

MCPS contracted with EpiServer and their migration partner C2 who, along with the Web Services team, migrated all MCPS websites (schools and offices) from Ektron to Episerver, the new CMS.

The first three pilot schools were launched in August 2019 and the last office site was transferred in May 2023.

Benefits of the new CMS

• A new, more intuitive, WYSIWIG-focused content management system
• All MCPS web content will be hosted in the Microsoft Azure cloud environment
• If your school website had an older design/template, it was automatically be upgraded to a new template similar to Brookhaven ES during the migration process
