Our Commitment to Accessibility

The Yakima School District is in the process of being enhanced to comply with the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C's) Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0 Level AA and the Web Accessibility Initiative Accessible Rich Internet Applications Suite (WAI-ARIA) 1.0 when planning for and developing online content and functionality. Where a web product cannot be brought into compliance, District staff will be responsible for providing alternative equivalent access upon request by an individual with a disability, except when doing so would impose an undue burden or create a fundamental alteration.

YSD is continuously working towards maintaining and extending its alignment with web accessibility standards. Over the past year, district and school websites were updated to a host system with a modern accessibility framework. We are now in the process of auditing and revising site content in order to bring all areas of the site up to the same level of overall web accessibility.

Website Translations Disclaimer

Some Yakima School District (YSD) websites can be translated into a different language using Google™ Translate, a third party service (the "Service") that provides automated computer translations of web pages. The Google™ Translate service is offered as a convenience and is subject to applicable Google Terms of Service. Providing the service as a convenience is not an endorsement of the product or the results generated and nothing herein should be construed as such an approval or endorsement.

The content of YSD websites originate in English. If there are differences between the English content and its translation, the English content is always the most accurate. By selecting a language from the Google Translate menu, the user accepts the legal implications of any misinterpretations or differences in the translation.

As Google's translation is an automated service it may display interpretations that are an approximation of the website's original content. You should not rely on Google™ Translate to provide an exact translation of the website. There are circumstances where the service does not translate correctly and/or where translations may not be possible, such as with certain file types, video content, and images. In addition, some applications and/or services may not work as expected when translated.

YSD has no control over the nature, content, and availability of the service, and accordingly, cannot guarantee the accuracy, reliability, or timeliness of the translation. Neither YSD nor its employees accept liability for any inaccuracies or errors in the translation or other problem arising from or in connection with use of the Google™ Translate service.
