ADA Requirements for Schools

Why is ADA Compliance important?

  • Inclusivity: Ensure equitable access to your district’s information, communication, and services for all users.
  • Legal compliance: Feel confident that your website is in compliance with current regulation and avoid OCR complaints.
  • Improved user experience: Improve the user experience for all users in the district and community with Smart Sites features that include easy-to-use navigation, clear and concise content, and consistent design.

How does Smart Sites ensure my site will be ADA compliant?

  • All provided websites meet the WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards.
  • Smart Sites designs use appropriate font sizes, line height, and color contrast as well as ensure links are descriptive based on color alone.
  • Descriptive Alt Tags and navigational controls make the website and content easy to navigate with screen readers, keyboards, and assistive technology.
