What our crawl found on psusd.us

Counts from our September 25, 2026 crawl, which visited 40 pages. Our crawler found 33 public documents on psusd.us — an estimated 235 pages your team would otherwise inventory by hand.

Documents by category

  • Other17 · 52%
  • Policies6 · 18%
  • Reports6 · 18%
  • Forms4 · 12%

No single category dominates this inventory — the largest bucket is uncategorized material at 52% — so a short sampling pass is the fastest way to establish remediation priorities.

By file format

  • PDF 33 · 100%

Checked sample

3 of 32 passed(9%)

  • Passed basic checks: 3
  • Did not pass: 29

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.

The rate covers the 32 files we checked, not all 33 documents. 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 make up 12% of the documents. Forms take the most work to fix, since every field needs a label and a logical tab order.

1 more checked file is counted above but not linked here: it is on another site or its name looks like a personal record.

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. 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. 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. 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. 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 25, 2026: we fetched 40 pages from https://www.psusd.us/ and found 33 documents.
  • The pass rate comes from machine checks on 32 of those documents, not from checking every file.
  • Changelog: September 25, 2026 — inventory refreshed from the latest crawl.

With 196 days left, start with the documents people use most and fix the rest in batches.

Where Palm Springs Unified School District should start

Start with board minutes, enrollment and special-education forms: the documents families rely on.

Families need these files to enroll, request services and follow board decisions.

At this size several departments publish documents, so name one owner per department and track progress in one place.

Usually owned by the superintendent's office, communications and special education staff.

Frequently asked questions

When is Palm Springs Unified School District's ADA Title II deadline?

April 26, 2027. Palm Springs Unified School 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 Palm Springs Unified School District's deadline set?

For an independent school district the rule uses the Census Bureau's Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates for the district, not its enrollment. That figure is 183,153 (2024 Small Area Income and Poverty Estimates), at or above 50,000, so the earlier compliance date applies.

How many public documents does Palm Springs Unified School District have?

Our crawl on September 25, 2026 fetched 40 pages from https://www.psusd.us/ and found 33 documents, an estimated 235 pages. The full file-level list is available to verified staff after claiming the page.

How many of Palm Springs Unified School District's documents pass accessibility checks?

3 of the 32 files we checked passed basic machine checks (9%). That is a sample of the 33 documents we found, and passing basic checks is not full WCAG 2.1 AA conformance.

How much would it cost to fix Palm Springs Unified School District's documents?

Our directional estimate is $209 to $314 with DocoMatic: about 1,047 credits for 235 estimated pages, based on this crawl. It is not a quote.

Which documents should Palm Springs Unified School 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.
