On Friday, the Department of Justice announced an extension to the requirements for web content and mobile app accessibility for government entities, including school districts. The new compliance date for government entities with a total population of 50,000 or more (including SPPS) has been extended from April 24, 2026, to April 26, 2027.

Staff should continue to increase their familiarity with these standards and learn how to create documents, web pages, presentations and other digital content using these standards. Digital accessibility resources for staff are available on the SPPS Digital Accessibility Website​​​​​​.
