Website Accessibility Policy Statement
Last updated August 10, 2026
The Miquon School is committed to providing an inclusive, accessible digital environment for all members of our community—including students, prospective families, parents, alumni, and staff—regardless of ability or technology.
Our Commitment
We strive to ensure that our website and digital resources conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA standards, as well as the standards defined by Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act and Title III of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).
Key Accessibility Features
To ensure our digital communications are accessible to everyone, our platform is designed to support:
- Keyboard Navigation: Full accessibility for users who navigate using a keyboard or assistive technology rather than a mouse.
- Alternative Text: Descriptive text for non-text content (images, graphics, and icons) to assist screen reader users.
- Screen Reader Compatibility: Structural HTML markup (such as headings and landmark roles) to allow screen readers to parse content effectively.
- Color and Contrast: Text and contrast ratios that meet readability standards, avoiding reliance on color alone to convey critical information.
Third-Party Content & Portals
Our website may contain links to third-party tools or platforms (such as parent portals, online tuition payment systems, or athletic scheduling apps). While we do not control these third-party environments, The Miquon School actively encourages vendor partners to meet equal accessibility standards.
Ongoing Monitoring & Review
We continuously review our site to maintain compliance and resolve accessibility barriers. This includes regular automated scans, periodic manual testing, and ongoing training for staff members responsible for publishing website content.
Feedback & Accessibility Assistance
If you experience any difficulty accessing information on our website, or if you need digital materials provided in an alternate format (e.g., large print, screen-reader accessible text, or braille), please let us know.
To help us assist you, please provide:
- The URL or specific page where you encountered an issue.
