unfortunately the site itself is NOT ADA compliant, technically it cannot
be used in schools that recieve any federal aid. and it cannot be used by
disabled persons using some adaptive software.

check out  www.W3C.org/WAI for further information on making websites
accessible and usable by ALL persons.
