Unify Emergency Operations and Close Critical Preparedness Gaps
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly available EOP, has an overdue review cycle, and operates fragmented mass notification systems that create coordination gaps. NIMS compliance mandates and tabletop exercise findings confirm critical safety and regulatory exposure for students, staff, and the broader community.
The opportunity
FEMA preparedness grants (HSGP, BRIC) offer a near-term funding path independent of the district's potential $29M bond proposal, making action viable within the current fiscal cycle. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance risk, strengthens community safety, and positions the district ahead of bond planning timelines.
Mass Notification System Consolidation
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district operates two competing mass notification platforms simultaneously, creating coordination gaps and reliability risks during time-critical emergencies. This fragmented architecture undermines unified emergency communications and compounds existing gaps in EOP readiness, elevating risk for students, staff, and the broader community.
The opportunity
HSGP funding eligibility provides a viable near-term path to address this consolidation with limited local match required. Acting within the current grant cycle aligns with NIMS compliance obligations, strengthens emergency preparedness outcomes, and supports responsible stewardship of public funds ahead of upcoming fiscal planning.
Cybersecurity and Credential Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district faces active mandates for MFA implementation and phishing mitigation while its incumbent firewall approaches end-of-life amid an ongoing replacement procurement. Leadership transition in the Technology Director role creates near-term decision risk and urgency around securing credential and endpoint infrastructure.
The opportunity
Converging contract expirations within 18 months and an active firewall procurement create a defined window to modernize cybersecurity posture comprehensively. Addressing credential management and MFA compliance now aligns with the district's IT security priorities and supports responsible stewardship of public funds.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Equity Compliance
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district faces an identified WCAG 2.1 website accessibility compliance mandate, creating legal exposure and equity risk for students, families, and staff who rely on accessible digital communications. This is a recognized operational gap, not a speculative need, requiring structured remediation.
The opportunity
Accessibility compliance projects can advance independently of bond cycles or capital planning, enabling action within the current fiscal period. Addressing this now reduces legal liability, supports equitable access for all community members, and aligns with federal accessibility requirements.
Fleet Safety Modernization for Expanding Transportation Services
Fleet Management · Student Transportation Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district faces active transportation safety risks, including a documented bus crash and a driver shortage, while expanding fleet operations for the 2026–27 school year. An open Fleet Manager position and increased route activity elevate risk exposure for students, staff, and the district's operational continuity.
The opportunity
The 2026–27 service expansion and a potential $29M bond proposal create a timely window to invest in fleet safety infrastructure through cooperative purchasing channels. Addressing these gaps now supports student safety outcomes, aligns with incoming leadership priorities, and leverages an upcoming fiscal planning cycle.

Discuss this project →Centralized Endpoint Visibility and Management Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The district operates a mature IT environment with a dedicated Network & Security Engineer and an active cybersecurity modernization initiative, yet lacks centralized endpoint visibility and management. Upcoming Dell support contract expirations within 18 months create a consolidation gap that elevates operational and security risk across district devices.
The opportunity
Contract renewal timelines and an active IT modernization initiative create a natural window to close endpoint management gaps before support lapses. This project aligns with current fiscal planning cycles and may qualify for state or federal cybersecurity funding, reducing local budget impact.
