Why This Matters

Under the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Title II regulations, all digital content created and shared by school districts, including Durham Public Schools, must be accessible to people with disabilities. This includes students, parents, staff, and community members who may use screen readers, keyboard navigation, captions, or other assistive technologies.
