Hamden Public Schools is committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience.
We are currently modifying the site to comply with best practices and standards as defined by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C)
Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 2.0. These guidelines explain how to make web content more accessible for people with disabilities.
We are not perfect (yet!), but we will continue to work to improve the accessibility of all sections of our site with the goal of making each piece of content accessible to every visitor. Please let us know if you have any problems accessing our content.
