Web Accessibility

We are committed to creating accessible digital experiences for all of our users, across many different devices. Our website is designed to ensure that people with disabilities, including those who are blind or partially sighted, can effectively access, understand, navigate, and interact.

Web Standards

Our website is built according to Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 AA or better accessibility. WCAG is an industry standard for creating accessible content and it provides guidance around best practices for ensuring content is legible for all users, including color contrast ratios, not relying on color solely as a means of conveying information, ensuring that content can be understood with assistive devices and more.

We use Google Translate so visitors who speak a language other than English can access information. Select a language in the header.

Report an Accessibility Issue

While we have strived to do our best to ensure all our content is accessible, we can always do better. If you find a page or content that is hard to read or digest, we want to know so we can fix it. Most of our pages have a form at the bottom for providing input. You can let us know there, or at the bottom of this page. Thank you for helping us to make our site even better.

School Websites

School websites are managed independently by each school and are responsible for their own accessibility compliance. The District provides tools and resources to support schools in this effort, but does not directly manage school-level web content.

  • Reporting Issues: If you are experiencing difficulty accessing content on a school website, please reach out to that school directly.
  • School Resources: School staff looking to comply with Title II requirements should refer to the guidance available on the CPS Intranet.
