    dreamweaver has a utility to 'clean up word html'.

    save your word document in .html > open the .html document in dreamweaver,
    go to command > clean up word .html. > click ok.

    i have found it to work quite well.

    you can also optimize your word documents to convert in a cleaner manner by
    using very basic text and formatting.

    Dennis,

    How about converting the word documents to HTML and saving them with a name
    you want to use as the webpage name.
    For example, I have converted my student survival stories as "namestory.htm"

    Then upload the document(s) to the school's website designated folder(s)
    using a free software like Fetch.
    Using Fetch, I uploaded all 24 stories in a folder called "survival" to my
    folder called "kevin"

    Finally, create links to the documents from the main DreamWeaver created
    homepage.
    I linked from my homepage to (for example) this link,
    www.seattleschools.org/schools/lowell/kevin/survival/alecstory.htm , and
    only had to change the name of the student for each new student link.

    In conclusion, your teachers' work stays in Word and is not wasted, and your
    job is to convert the documents to HTML, upload their pages to the right
    place and create working links.
