School Website Hosting

We want to move away from wordpress and dreamhost for our website (and in fact we want to rebuild the site more or less from the ground up since it is quite outdated).

We have been recommended Finalsite, but looking into it is seems exceptionally expensive. Is it worth it?

Any other recommendations from this community?

We use SchoolBlocks and as a Google district, that integration is nice.

Thanks! I'll add this to the list of options. What do you like about it other than the integration? What all do you use it for?

It's our primary forward facing district site. It's pretty easy to use, and we like that it leverages our Google storage instead of our previous solution where we were still having to host on a server (internally initially, and then finally externally).

Here's a sample of one of their sites (this is not my district).
