Connection, Purpose, Progress- MCS-BSU Innovation Summit

As a public agency, Muncie Community Schools is now required to meet new federal guidelines for digital accessibility. What does that mean? It means writing and posting in clear, simple language that is easy to understand. Information must be organized with meaningful headings, short paragraphs, and lists when appropriate. We must provide descriptive text for images, captions for videos, and transcripts for audio content. Any links need to have meaningful text instead of phrases like "click here." All content needs to be readable by screen readers and understood by people with a wide range of abilities, including those with visual, hearing, cognitive, or motor disabilities. The goal is to make information accessible, usable, and understandable for everyone. Andy and Cynthia will share insights on how to do this when messaging to families or the general public.
