Emergency Operations Plan Modernization and Mass Notification Resilience
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's Local Emergency Operations Plan has been overdue for review since August 2024, no Emergency Management Coordinator is in place, and mass notification relies on a single mobile app — a critical single point of failure. NIMS implementation is required for grant eligibility, compounding compliance and operational risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
Two identified grant opportunities with July 2026 deadlines directly fund emergency management and mass notification improvements, creating a near-term funding window aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Acting now addresses overdue compliance mandates, closes preparedness gaps, and positions the district to secure available funding with limited local match required.
Mass Notification System Redundancy and Resilience
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district relies on a single mobile app for all emergency notifications, creating a critical single point of failure for reaching staff and the community during incidents. This gap compounds an overdue Emergency Operations Plan review and the absence of a designated Emergency Management Coordinator, elevating both operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
BRIC and HSGP grant deadlines in July 2026 provide a funded pathway to address this gap with limited local match required. Acting now supports EOP compliance, NIMS eligibility, and ensures the district can reliably protect students, staff, and the broader community.
Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
A recent school bus incident has exposed critical gaps in fleet oversight, including the absence of in-vehicle video and telemetry and elevated driver maneuvering risk. Ongoing bus route consolidation adds operational complexity, making real-time visibility and safety accountability more urgent.
The opportunity
The FY2026–2027 budget has been approved with operational transportation funding, and cooperative procurement vehicles are available to accelerate acquisition. Acting now addresses post-incident safety risk, supports route consolidation decisions, and demonstrates responsible stewardship of public trust.

Cybersecurity · Data Governance
High Priority
About this project
A recent third-party data breach exposed the district's student information systems to credential and data security risks. With a small IT team and no formalized password management controls in place, the district faces ongoing vulnerability with limited internal capacity to respond.
The opportunity
New superintendent leadership and an upcoming Technology Services Agreement expiration create a timely decision window to address credential security gaps. Lightweight, cost-effective solutions are well-suited to small districts and may align with active E-Rate procurement cycles and the current fiscal year budget.
