Documents by category
- Policies16 · 47%
- Other12 · 35%
- Agendas & minutes3 · 9%
- Forms3 · 9%
Policies and administrative rules make up the largest share of this inventory (47%). These are long-lived reference documents, so fixing them once pays off for years.

- Word (DOCX) 2 · 6%
Checked sample
1 of 22 passed(5%)
- Passed basic checks: 1
- Did not pass: 21
Most checked files are missing basics such as tags, a document title, a declared language or labeled form fields. Files made without accessibility tooling usually look like this, and they need structural work, not touch-ups.
22 files is a small sample, so read the rate as a rough sign rather than a measurement. Checks cover tag structure, document language, title, image alt text and form-field labels.
Scanned share
0% scanned
Most of the collection is digital-native text, which keeps remediation at the lighter end: tagging and structure work rather than OCR.
Scanned images need text recognition (OCR) before they can be tagged.
Forms are a small part of this inventory (9%), but each one needs labeled fields and a working tab order before someone using a screen reader can fill it in.

What each check looks for
- Tagged structure
- The file has a tag tree, so assistive technology can tell headings, lists and paragraphs apart.
- Document language
- The file declares its language, so screen readers pronounce it correctly.
- Document title
- The file has a document title, shown instead of the file name.
- Image alt text
- Every image in a tagged file carries alternative text, or the file has no untagged images.
- Form field labels
- Every fillable form field has a label a screen reader can announce.
How we measured this
1.Crawl
We start at the organization's website and follow its sitemaps and links on the same site. We respect robots.txt and crawl delays, and skip login areas.
2.Classify
Each document is sorted by file format and, from its link text and file name, into a category such as forms or agendas. Page counts are estimated, often without downloading the whole file.
3.Check a sample
We open up to 50 PDFs and run basic machine checks: tags, document title, language, image alt text and form-field labels.
4.Publish only with evidence
Figures appear only when a crawl finds at least 25 documents and checks at least 20 of them.
Limits of this method
- We only see public pages we can reach through links or sitemaps. Documents behind logins or on other services may be missed.
- Crawls stop at page, document and time limits. When one is hit, the counts are minimums.
- Categories and page counts are estimates from links, file names and file metadata.
- Machine checks can't judge reading order, alt text quality or table structure. Passing them is not WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.
- Figures describe the site on the crawl date, not today.
This page's evidence
- Crawled September 29, 2026: we fetched 36 pages from https://www.explorek12oc.org/ and found 85 documents.
- The pass rate comes from machine checks on 22 of those documents, not from checking every file.
- Changelog: September 29, 2026 — inventory refreshed from the latest crawl.

What DocoMatic does
- Finds the PDF, Word, PowerPoint and Excel files on your website and estimates the backlog.
- Fixes documents at three levels, from basic tagging to complex forms.
- Checks every fixed file, with veraPDF PDF/UA-1 validation from Level 2 up.
- Human review: turn it on when you request a fix, or arrange it with our team.
- Monitors your site so new documents don't rebuild the backlog.

Frequently asked questions
When is Explore Academy District's ADA Title II deadline?
April 26, 2027. Explore Academy District is in the 2027 cohort under the Department of Justice's rule on web and mobile accessibility for state and local governments, with compliance dates as set by the Department's interim final rule of April 20, 2026 (91 FR 20902).
How was Explore Academy District's deadline set?
We could not confirm which population figure the rule gives Explore Academy District. The Census Bureau counts a community college district as an independent school district government, and the Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates publish no figure for one — so we show the earlier date as the safer planning assumption. Confirm your cohort before you plan around it.
How many public documents does Explore Academy District have?
Our crawl on September 29, 2026 fetched 36 pages from https://www.explorek12oc.org/ and found 34 documents, an estimated 615 pages. The full file-level list is available to verified staff after claiming the page.
How many of Explore Academy District's documents pass accessibility checks?
1 of the 22 files we checked passed basic machine checks (5%). That is a sample of the 34 documents we found, and passing basic checks is not full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.
How much would it cost to fix Explore Academy District's documents?
Our directional estimate is $436 to $654 with DocoMatic: about 2,181 credits for 615 estimated pages, based on this crawl. It is not a quote.
Which documents should Explore Academy District fix first?
Start with board minutes, enrollment and special-education forms: the documents families rely on.
Do older PDFs have to be made accessible too?
Not all of them. Documents already posted before the compliance date are excepted unless they are currently used to apply for, gain access to, or participate in the organization's services, programs or activities (28 CFR 35.201(b)). Genuinely archived content is excepted too, but only while it is kept solely for reference, research or recordkeeping, sits in a clearly identified archive area and is not changed. Everything published from the compliance date on is covered, and so is any older file people still use to reach a service.
