The search pages use a combination of:

• Checkboxes ,
• Drop-down lists  Drop-down list Option 1 Option 2 , and
• Keyword search text boxes

Checkboxes

Checkboxes allow for multiple selections of related information such as "types of programs", etc. Simply click any combination of checkboxes (or leave unchecked if the subject to be searched is not a requirement for your search) you desire. Checkboxes can be unchecked by clicking them again.

Drop-Down Lists

Drop-down list allow the selection of a single-specific criteria to be added to you search. Drop-down lists display only the current options available preventing searches on criteria that are known not to exist in the database. Simply click the drop-down arrow to the right of the list then click on the option you desire.

Keyword Search Text Boxes

Keyword text boxes differ from typical text boxes in that they do not require any specific word for a valid search. Portions of a word or even multiple words can be used in these text boxes.

For Example: To search for a school located in Denver, you could:

• Insert the word "Denver" - , or
• Insert just "Den" - .

Both would yield results that would list Denver as the city or an other city that had "den" in the name.
