Accessibility Statement
NOTE: This Accessibility Statement applies to the main district website. School websites and other subwebs that are outside of the district's "shell" and independently maintained will be examined following the remediation of the core district pages.
Tulsa Public Schools is dedicated to providing an accessible website for individuals with disabilities. Currently, we are taking steps to convert our web pages to meet with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) as proposed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The district's ultimate goal is to provide a website that achieves Priority 2 or AA conformance as prescribed by the W3C, while also complying with Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Pages that have been successfully modified for accessibility will be marked with the validation link, 508 that will appear at the bottom of the page.
Any comments/concerns regarding accessibility should be directed to the webmaster.
