Accessibility
We're building Informed K12 to be usable by everyone
School districts serve every member of their community. The tools they rely on should too. We follow accessibility best practices because that's what districts and the people they serve deserve.
Our Standard
Guided by WCAG 2.2 Level AA
We are actively working toward conformance with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.2 Level AA — the internationally recognized benchmark for digital accessibility. This standard guides how we design, build, and test our platform.
Target standard
WCAG 2.2 Level AA
Scope
Core end-user workflows including form submission, approval routing, and response management
Evaluation partner
WebAIM, an independent, nationally recognized authority on web accessibility
Our Process
How we're getting there
Accessibility isn't a checkbox. It's an ongoing practice that we've embedded into how we build and maintain our product.
03
Validation and reporting
Once remediation milestones are reached, WebAIM will retest our product to validate progress. The results will be published as a formal Accessibility Conformance Report (ACR) based on the VPAT framework, available on this page.
04
Continouos monitoring
Accessibility checks are already part of how we build and ship our product, helping us catch issues early. We are continuing to strengthen these practices so that new features are evaluated against WCAG standards from the start, and existing functionality is regularly tested for conformance as our product evolves.
Conformance Reporting
ACR Coming Soon
Our Accessibility Conformance Report, based on the VPAT 2.5 framework and validated by WebAIM, will be published here once our current remediation and retest cycle is complete. Contact us if you need accessibility documentation for procurement.
Compatibility
Assistive technology support
Informed K12 is designed to work with the assistive technologies district staff and community members rely on. We test with the following combinations:
Windows
JAWS or NVDA with Chrome or Firefox
macOS & iOS
VoiceOver with Safari
Keyboard navigation
Keyboard operability across core workflows. Compatibility may vary depending on assistive technology configuration and district environment.
Display preferences
Compatibility with browser zoom, text resizing, and high contrast settings
District guidance
We provide coaching and best-practice guidance to districts on accessible field labeling, since field structure and labeling play a major role in usability for assistive technology users. Our Customer Success team works directly with districts to ensure forms are configured for the best possible experience.
Our Commitment
Transparency over self-certification
We know districts are navigating evolving accessibility requirements, and we take our role as a vendor partner seriously. Our approach is built on transparency: we publish what we know, we're honest about where we're improving, and we back our commitment with independent evaluation rather than automated overlays or self-certification. If your district requires accessibility documentation as part of a procurement or compliance review, we're happy to provide what we have today and discuss our roadmap in detail.
We welcome feedback from users, districts, and accessibility professionals. If you experience a barrier using our product or have questions about our accessibility efforts, reach out.
