Large District Websites Have ‘Extensive Accessibility Issues’

By Joshua Bolkan, THE Journal

The Bureau of Internet Accessibility (BoIA) recently shared the results of automated tests it ran to check the accessibility of a handful of school websites and found that those tested had “extensive” issues related to accessibility. In a blog post about the tests, BoIA pointed to the fact that about 13 percent of all public school students receive special education services and nearly 500 investigations have started by the Department of Education’s Office of Civil Rights to look into the accessibility of school, district and college websites.
