Hartford Public School District (HPS) is fully committed to ensuring that our entire website meets WCAG 2.1 and WAI-ARIA 1.1 requirements of ADA accessibility and compliance standards. HPS is taking several steps to make our websites more accessible to people with disabilities. Our website content managers have attended training on web accessibility and our designated Web Accessibility Manager conducts regular audits of our websites to ensure standards are maintained.

Please note that some pages on the HPS website contain links to third-party sites. HPS is not responsible for the Online Content or accessibility of third party sites which are featured only as additional resources and are not essential to the function of HPS programs, services and activities. Where third-party content or features are included as essential pieces, such as YouTube videos about our programs or forms for access to essential services, we are committed to insuring that the information in the content is equally accessible to all users through closed captioning, alternative text for visual elements or other methods as necessary.

HPS is committed to working with digital providers whose online content conforms minimally to our own standards and guidelines.

HPS strives to adhere to the accepted guidelines and standards for accessibility and usability. If you have any trouble accessing the HPS website or information within the site, please utilize the form on this page to connect with our Web Accessibility Coordinator.

Please provide the URL (web address) of the material you tried to access, the problem you experienced, and your contact information. We will contact you and provide the information in an alternative format or make the necessary improvements to make the information accessible. We strive to respond to inquiries within 2 business days and resolve the accessibility barrier within 10 business days.
