Accessibility at schoolboard.net
schoolboard.net is committed to providing digital experiences that are accessible to people with disabilities, including people who use assistive technologies.
Scope of This Statement
This statement applies to the schoolboard.net corporate website and the core schoolboard.net platform features that we design and maintain. Individual school districts control the agendas, attachments, images, links, and other content they publish through the platform. Accessibility of district-created content may therefore vary.
Measures We Take
Our accessibility work includes:
- using semantic HTML for headings, lists, tables, links, and page regions;
- supporting keyboard navigation and visible keyboard focus;
- designing responsive pages that reflow across desktop, tablet, phone, and browser zoom;
- reviewing color contrast, readable text, form labels, instructions, and error messages;
- providing public and private access controls without relying on color alone;
- supporting structured HTML agenda content as an alternative to PDF-only workflows;
- providing accessible-content authoring guidance and training resources; and
- testing and improving templates, navigation, and publishing workflows over time.
HTML-First Agenda Publishing
The platform allows districts to publish agenda materials as structured HTML instead of relying solely on downloadable PDFs. Properly authored HTML can provide headings, lists, tables, descriptive links, responsive reading, and compatibility with common assistive technologies. District authors remain responsible for reviewing the structure, accuracy, and accessibility of the content they publish.
Known Limitations
Accessibility may be affected by content or services outside our direct control, including:
- documents, images, videos, and HTML supplied by districts or other users;
- older meeting archives and legacy PDF attachments;
- third-party websites, embedded services, or files linked from an agenda; and
- some combinations of older browsers, operating systems, and assistive technologies.
We continue to identify and address barriers in the platform. Districts should contact their own administration regarding an inaccessible district-created agenda or attachment. schoolboard.net will assist districts with platform-related accessibility questions and remediation workflows.
Compatibility
schoolboard.net is intended for current versions of commonly used web browsers and operating systems and is designed to support keyboard navigation, browser zoom, screen readers, and other assistive technologies. Results may vary with older or unsupported browser and assistive-technology combinations.
Feedback, Assistance, and Alternative Formats
If you encounter an accessibility barrier in a schoolboard.net feature, need assistance, or need information in another format, please use our contact form. If the issue concerns content published by a school district, you may also contact that district directly.
Please include, when possible:
- the page address or meeting title and date;
- a description of the problem and the task you were trying to complete;
- the browser, device, and operating system being used;
- the assistive technology being used, if applicable; and
- the format or accommodation that would help.
We will review accessibility reports and make reasonable efforts to correct platform barriers or help provide the requested information in an accessible format.
