Hialeah School District Commits to Full Web Accessibility for All

The Hialeah school district reaffirmed its commitment to web accessibility, ensuring all students, parents, and community members, including those with disabilities, can access online information and services. This initiative aligns with federal accessibility standards, aiming to provide equal digital access for everyone in Hialeah.

The district makes every effort to conform to ADA requirements for its website. This ongoing process ensures that individuals with disabilities acquire the same information, engage in the same interactions, and enjoy the same benefits and services as those without disabilities, with substantially equivalent ease of use. This commitment prevents exclusion or discrimination in programs, services, and activities delivered online.

Compliance extends to Section 504 and Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. This applies to all new web content produced, published, uploaded, or updated by the school district. The district continuously tests its site for accessibility, promptly correcting any nonconforming web pages to maintain compliance.

For users needing assistance, an accessibility menu is available on the district's website. Users can activate this menu by clicking an icon located on the corner of the page. Anyone experiencing difficulty with website content or requiring assistance can contact the district directly at [email protected] to report accessibility issues or ask questions.
