Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · School Safety Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Boys Ranch ISD faces critical emergency preparedness gaps — including an unverified EOP status, unconfirmed emergency alert system use, and no documented HSEEP-style exercises — while state-mandated safety-audit and EOP submission deadlines fall in fall 2025 and fall 2026. Recent wildfire evacuations in the area underscore the real-world consequences of these unresolved gaps for students and staff.
The opportunity
The district's proposed 2026–2027 budget includes increased Security and Monitoring allocations, creating a near-term funding window aligned with compliance deadlines. Addressing preparedness gaps now reduces audit and liability exposure, supports student safety outcomes, and positions the district ahead of mandatory submission timelines.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's IT environment relies on fragmented password management and legacy endpoint controls, leaving cybersecurity compliance unverified and a lean IT team overexposed. For a small district serving 178 students, these gaps elevate operational risk and strain limited staff capacity.
The opportunity
The proposed 2026–2027 budget includes a combined increase of over $78,000 across Data Processing and Security and Monitoring, creating a funded procurement window ahead of the August 2026 budget decision. Acting now aligns modernization efforts with available appropriations and reduces unverified compliance exposure before the next fiscal cycle.
ADA Title II Web Accessibility Compliance Modernization
Digital Equity · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district faces a binding ADA Title II mandate requiring WCAG 2.1 web accessibility compliance by April 2028. Without a phased remediation plan in place, the district risks non-compliance, inequitable access to digital services for students and families, and potential legal exposure.
The opportunity
Early action enables phased implementation that distributes cost across budget cycles and reduces last-minute remediation risk. A conditional grant tied to online learning initiatives may provide a viable funding pathway, aligning accessibility improvements with the upcoming fiscal planning window.

Discuss this project →Fleet Telematics & Student Transportation Modernization
Fleet Management · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
Boys Ranch ISD is actively pursuing bus modernization and new vehicle purchases, but lacks documented telematics to support route safety, vehicle oversight, and operational accountability. The Student Transportation budget currently shows a $0 allocation, indicating a funding gap that must be addressed before procurement can advance.
The opportunity
The district's participation in a cooperative purchasing program provides a streamlined, low-friction procurement path that reduces administrative burden and timeline. Aligning this initiative with the upcoming budget cycle and available cooperative contracts positions the district to act preventively before safety or compliance gaps emerge.
