Fleet Modernization & Student Transportation Safety
Fleet Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks telematics and dash camera systems, creating liability exposure and safety gaps across its fleet. High-severity crash history and maintenance deficiencies compound risk, while the broader budget remains frozen for new technology investments.
The opportunity
A secured $3.37M Clean Bus Energy Grant provides a direct, funded path for fleet modernization with no reliance on general operating funds. Acting within this grant window allows the district to address safety and liability risks while leveraging cooperative purchasing to accelerate procurement.

Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly available all-hazards Emergency Operations Plan, a verified mass notification system, and documented preparedness exercises. Michigan statutory mandates require regular EOP reviews, placing the district at direct compliance and operational risk.
The opportunity
Michigan compliance deadlines and identified preparedness gaps create immediate urgency for EOP development and notification modernization. BRIC and HSGP grant programs offer eligible funding pathways, and alignment with upcoming budget planning cycles supports a timely, fiscally responsible path forward.
Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district's public-facing website has identified WCAG 2.1 compliance gaps, creating ongoing legal exposure and barriers to equitable access for community members with disabilities. Without remediation, the district remains at risk of ADA-related complaints and reputational harm.
The opportunity
WCAG and ADA obligations are continuous mandates with no expiration, making remediation a standing priority that aligns with any fiscal planning cycle. Addressing accessibility gaps now reduces legal risk, improves public trust, and supports equitable service delivery for all community members.
Cybersecurity Infrastructure Modernization for K-12
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The district currently lacks visible enterprise security tooling, leaving endpoints and systems without standardized protection — a significant operational and compliance risk for a district managing over $1.3M in annual IT spend. The absence of foundational cybersecurity infrastructure creates exposure to data breaches, ransomware, and potential regulatory scrutiny.
The opportunity
Federal grant programs including BRIC, HSGP, and COPS TEP offer aligned funding paths for cybersecurity and IT initiatives, and an upcoming March budget presentation marks a near-term planning milestone. Acting now positions the district to align procurement with the fiscal cycle and close a greenfield security gap before risk materializes.
