(Unfortunately for me) I'm going to have to rebuild our entire website once more this year, but I do have a lot of the content and info finalized, and I'm certainly going to keep these suggestions in mind (one of the reasons there's more content on fewer pages is simply because Wix doesn't have a drop-down menu feature). I really appreciate all the input, our next site might not be as pretty (those page transitions are rather difficult to recreate I imagine) but it will hopefully be far more navigable.

If I were you I would recreate the website using PHP and HTML, create the head, footer, and sidebar if you have one in HTMl then put it in one php file and just use includes in the page, then your content goes in the page which is the only thing that changes on each page. that is what I did for my teams website, but what I would do is divide the work up unless you work on it during the summer, I started my teams website in the summer and finished it mid January, but I am still adding thinks like right now i am in the process of creating a gallery page for videos and photos.
Doing ti this way is more time consuming but you can customize it more that if you were to use any type of program. if all else fails, use drupal or joomla wordpress is for blogs drupal and joomla is both for actual websites.
