Accessibility
Built so every board member can use it.
SchoolBoardHQ is committed to making the platform usable by board members of all abilities. We treat accessibility as a baseline requirement, not an add-on.
We target WCAG 2.1 Level AA and are working toward WCAG 2.2 Level AA. Accessibility is a continuing program rather than a one-time certification — if any control falls short of this target, please report it so we can fix it.
Designed for assistive tech
Every screen targets WCAG 2.1 AA, and we are working toward WCAG 2.2 AA. We run automated axe-core audits on key flows and conducted a full manual and automated accessibility audit at launch, with manual VoiceOver, TalkBack, and keyboard-only walkthroughs in progress. Interactive elements expose accessible labels and roles.
Color, type, and contrast
Light and dark themes meet AA contrast for body text and UI controls. Type scales respect system font-size preferences. Color is never the sole indicator of state.
Touch and motion
All tappable elements meet a 44×44 point minimum, exceeding the WCAG 2.2 24×24 CSS-pixel target-size requirement. Motion is reduced when the operating system requests it. Forms support standard autofill and large touch zones.
Accessible authentication
You do not have to solve a cognitive puzzle to sign in. We support standard password managers and platform autofill, and Google or Apple sign-in as password-free alternatives — meeting the WCAG 2.2 Accessible Authentication success criterion.
Keyboard and focus
Every web page includes a "Skip to main content" link as the first focusable element, letting keyboard users bypass repeated navigation. Interactive controls show a visible focus indicator that meets WCAG 2.2 Focus Appearance contrast and size requirements.
Report an issue
If something blocks you from using SchoolBoardHQ, please tell us. We treat accessibility reports as priority bugs and will follow up directly.
