As a keyboard user, if I tab to a map marker, I can't navigate to the associated school page w/keyboard unless I TA several more times to the "Learn more" button. This will get worse as # of schools increase. Conclusion is that this is not good UX for keyboard users, and likely poor accessibility. This was originally reported by @javtran here: #191 (comment).
Ideally, I ought to be able to easily and quickly get to either the "Learn more" button or the school details page.
Suggestion for short-term fix via @BeeSeeWhy: Since tabbing only focuses the school and doesn't select it (keyboard user must press ENTER or KEY), we can change tab order so that AFTER the user selects the school, the next tab keypress focuses "Learn more". Alternatively, selecting the school automatically focuses "Learn more", skipping the interim step. Getting back to the map could use, for example, the ESC key.
Long-term fix suggestion (TODO: move to another issue): No longer allow keyboard navigation/tabbing through the map markers directly. Instead, only allow keyboard navigation through the list. This allows for a stable, intuitive tab order (versus map marker coordinates). This also appears to be how major map web applications handle keyboard navigation.
for desktop keyboard users, show list and map at the same time (perhaps the school card is merged into the list, or the card is adjacent to the list); perhaps have toggle for either list or map as per Kira where needed
for phone users, it would be difficult to show both list and map simultaneously due to screen real estate; map can show w/a "drawer" for list, or vice versa. a connected keyboard would then allow navigating through the list when shown
for tablets, it would be similar to keyboard users, but may have less screen real estate
