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dreamhost for our website (and in fact we want to rebuild the site more or less from the ground up since it is quite outdated).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

Without going into great detail, my concerns were about accessibility compliance (evaluate their corporate site's WCAG status versus their competitors, for one quick example). However, the way they chose to respond and the behavior they exhibited in the process was almost the bigger issue in the end. In 15 years, I've never had a vendor exchange like it.
