Case Study: Appleton Area School District improves website accessibility and streamlines content with Finalsite

How the District Streamlined Accessible Content Ahead of Title II Deadlines

Appleton Area School District needed a better way to share important information on its website, where more than 2,000 PDFs and other inaccessible formats made it hard for families to find, read, search, or translate content. Board policies, course guides, and summer school details were especially difficult to access, creating both usability and compliance challenges ahead of Title II deadlines. Finalsite helped the district address these issues using Composer, Posts, and accessibility tools.

Finalsite worked with Appleton Area School District to streamline and remediate content by moving information out of inaccessible PDFs and into more usable web formats. The result was a better experience for families and a more efficient workflow for staff, with improved access to information across the district’s sites.
