Description

Summary

Column headers in the Evaluations table that support sorting do not have aria-sort attributes. Screen reader users cannot determine the current sort state or which column is active.

Fix

Add aria-sort="ascending" / "descending" / "none" to <th> elements based on the current sort state.
