The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

Online school parents and educators from around the state recently convened at the capitol in Lansing to meet lawmakers and make the case for full funding and equal funding for all Michigan students.  

It was a necessary trip and critical ask in light of Governor Whitmer’s recently released proposed School Aid budget for FY 2025 in which she has called for a 20 percent reduction in per pupil funding for only children attending full-time online public school.

“It’s frustrating for sure, and it’s absolutely the wrong message to be sending to our students,” said Amy Dunlap, PSO Michigan board chair. “No child should be told their education is worth less than another’s, but that’s essentially the implication in the governor’s proposal. Different but equal—that should be the message and approach to school funding, and that’s what we’re here trying to convey to these lawmakers.”

Over the course of two days, over a dozen online school advocates armed with that message met with state Representatives to make the case for fair and equal funding and to share their own personal stories about vital role online education plays in meeting the unique needs of students and communities across the state.

“It was great to have so many people come to Lansing to advocate on behalf of the online school community, and I think there’s no question we made an impact.”
