Website Accessibility
Dryden Community Schools Website Accessibility Policy
Dryden Community Schools (DCS) understands the importance of making our websites accessible to individuals with disabilities. We are dedicated to ensuring that all visitors can easily access the information they need and are continuously working to enhance both accessibility and usability by following recognized standards and best practices.
Our website is designed to align with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.
These guidelines provide direction on improving web accessibility, and the District is actively educating staff to ensure the content they share on classroom websites meets these standards, making it accessible for all users.
Our site is developed using W3C-compliant HTML and CSS, ensuring that it functions properly across modern browsers. By adhering to these coding standards, we help maintain compatibility with future web technologies.
DCS is committed to following established accessibility guidelines and continuously seeks ways to improve usability. We are currently evaluating tools that can assess our website for accessibility barriers and identify areas that may need adjustments.
Portable Document Format
Some documents on the DCS website are available in Portable Document Format (PDF). To enhance accessibility, we recommend downloading the latest version of Adobe Reader, which is available for free on the Adobe website. When possible, we will also provide alternative formats, such as text-based or HTML versions, to accommodate different needs.
We are committed to ongoing improvements to make our website as accessible as possible. If you encounter any difficulties using the DCS website, please contact us for assistance.
