Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan and has no established mass-notification system, leaving students, staff, and the community exposed to significant preparedness gaps. A recent roof collapse underscores these vulnerabilities and the urgent need for NIMS-compatible planning aligned with Michigan Publication 201/201a.
The opportunity
Compliance mandates for EOP maintenance and NIMS alignment, combined with an upcoming board decision window, make this a near-term priority. Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) and BRIC funding provide viable paths forward, and cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline procurement within existing budget constraints.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity & Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district faces a compliance mandate for WCAG 2.1 Level AA accessibility across all public-facing digital properties, with legal and operational risk tied to non-conformance. The current CMS environment and Continuity of Learning Plan both underscore the urgency of modernizing accessible, equitable digital access for students, families, and staff.
The opportunity
WCAG 2.1 compliance deadlines create a defined action window, and the district's recently approved budget and cooperative purchasing access through Michigan state-level and regional co-ops simplify procurement. Addressing accessibility now reduces legal exposure, supports equitable service delivery, and aligns with the current fiscal cycle.
Genesee GASBO/ISD
Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Management · Student Transportation Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's FY2026-27 capital and transportation appropriations signal planned investment in fleet oversight and student transportation safety. Without telematics infrastructure in place, the district lacks real-time visibility into vehicle operations, driver behavior, and route accountability.
The opportunity
FY2026-27 budget appropriations create a defined funding window, and eligible grant programs may offset acquisition costs. Acting within this cycle positions the district to improve transportation safety outcomes and operational accountability before the next school year.
Endpoint Management & IT Infrastructure Modernization
IT Modernization · Endpoint Security
High Priority
About this project
With an annual IT and software spend of approximately $68,567, the district faces significant resource constraints in managing its technology environment, limiting visibility and control over endpoint devices. These gaps increase operational risk and may hinder the district's ability to maintain a secure, compliant infrastructure for students and staff.
The opportunity
HSGP and BRIC grant programs represent viable funding paths for IT management initiatives, and the district's recently approved budget creates a near-term decision window. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the district to address infrastructure gaps before competing capital needs—such as unplanned facility costs—absorb available resources.
Strengthening Cybersecurity and Credential Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's cybersecurity posture relies primarily on a state-provided application, leaving credential and identity management gaps unaddressed. With a limited IT budget and no identified dedicated security tooling, the district faces elevated risk of unauthorized access and data exposure affecting staff and students.
The opportunity
HSGP and BRIC grant programs offer viable funding paths to expand cybersecurity capabilities beyond state-provided tools, with minimal local match requirements. Stable leadership and an upcoming fiscal cycle create a favorable window to assess gaps, establish a credential management baseline, and reduce long-term operational risk.
