Why act now

Schools Are a Growing Target for ADA Lawsuits

Section 508 Requirements

Schools receiving federal funding are legally required to make websites accessible under Section 508 of the Rehabilitation Act. Non-compliance risks OCR complaints and federal funding.

DOJ Enforcement

The Department of Justice has confirmed ADA Title II applies to public schools. 4,000+ web accessibility lawsuits are filed per year in the US.

Settlement Costs

Settlements range from $5,000 to $100,000+, plus legal fees and mandatory remediation. Most school websites have issues they don't know about.
