Please reach out to us with questions or concerns at web@tacoma.k12.wa.us.

Tacoma Public Schools is committed to making its website usable by all people by meeting or exceeding the requirements of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0 Level AA (WCAG 2.0 AA).  These guidelines are recognized as the standard international guidelines and were developed by the Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI). 
 
We have engaged the Bureau of Internet Accessibility, an accessibility consulting company, to conduct an accessibility audit of our website and provide us with specific recommendations that will assist us in ensuring that our Web presence is in conformance with the WCAG 2.0 AA. 
 
Please be aware that our efforts are ongoing as we implement the relevant improvements to meet WCAG 2.0 AA guidelines over time. If you have specific questions or concerns about the accessibility of this site or need assistance in using the elements and processes found within this site, please contact us at web@tacoma.k12.wa.us. If you do encounter an accessibility issue, we will make reasonable efforts to investigate the situation and make the site accessible to you.

Ally Toolbar

The Ally Toolbar, located at the bottom left side of this screen, provides a fully customizable experience users can tailor to their individual needs—regardless of their device type, language preference, or preferred method of access.

The Ally Toolbar benefits all site visitors, but in particular, aging populations and individuals who have vision, motor and/or intellectual (cognitive) disabilities, those who are color blind, dyslexic, learning to read, learning a second language, or who may prefer listening instead of reading.
