Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, has no documented HSEEP-style exercises, and depends on a county mass-notification system with a history of outages. Michigan EOP/NIMS compliance mandates and an awarded Homeland Security Grant create immediate operational and regulatory pressure.
The opportunity
A Homeland Security Grant already awarded for emergency equipment and a June fiscal year-end create a near-term decision window to close compliance gaps and strengthen life-safety infrastructure. State infrastructure funding and existing emergency management spend signal available capacity to act within the current budget cycle.

Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
The district has experienced multiple recent non-fatal school bus crashes and lacks documented safety technology such as dash cameras or telematics systems. Media scrutiny over driver training practices heightens public accountability risk and underscores the urgency of closing this operational gap.
The opportunity
Active fleet investment—including electric bus capital grants—creates an opening to redirect local funds toward safety technology. Cooperative purchasing pathways and fleet compliance requirements support a streamlined, fiscally responsible procurement before the current budget cycle closes.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's BYOT policy operates without enterprise password or identity management controls, creating measurable access security gaps across staff and student devices. Moderate cybersecurity compliance mandates are in effect, and the absence of centralized credential oversight elevates risk of unauthorized access and data exposure.
The opportunity
Grant programs aligned to education technology and public safety cybersecurity—including law enforcement and justice assistance pathways—offer viable funding options within the current cycle. With a Technology Director in place and fiscal year end approaching in June, conditions favor a structured, compliance-driven initiative to close identity and endpoint security gaps now.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district's website and document ecosystem show accessibility gaps that create latent ADA compliance risk for students, families, and staff. Without a proactive remediation strategy, the district remains exposed to complaints, corrective action, and inequitable access to public information.
The opportunity
With fiscal-year planning underway and existing platform relationships in place, now is a practical entry point to address accessibility gaps before they escalate into formal complaints or audit findings. Proactive remediation supports equitable access, reduces legal exposure, and aligns with responsible stewardship of public resources.
