EOP Review and Mass Notification System Consolidation
Emergency Management · School Safety Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district operates a fragmented mass notification system across multiple platforms, creating coordination gaps and documented delivery failures that left families without reliable emergency communications. An unverified EOP review date and an approaching 2026 safety-audit deadline elevate compliance and operational risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
The 2026 safety-audit deadline creates a near-term forcing function, while the newly adopted 2026–2027 budget includes increased allocations for security and monitoring services—providing active funding headroom. Consolidating notification channels and formalizing EOP review now reduces audit exposure and strengthens district-wide emergency readiness.

Cybersecurity Compliance · Endpoint Management
High Priority
About this project
Texas Education Code §11.175 requires a formal cybersecurity policy, a designated coordinator, and incident reporting protocols — all of which carry compliance risk for the district. A fragmented IT environment and an active 1:1 student device program have expanded the endpoint attack surface, increasing exposure to breaches that could disrupt instruction and compromise student data.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative offers a no-cost funding pathway to address these gaps, and the newly adopted 2026–2027 budget includes allocations for security monitoring and data processing. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the district to meet statutory mandates, reduce operational risk, and protect students and staff.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The district must bring all public-facing digital properties into WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance ahead of a federal compliance deadline in the April 2027–2028 window. Failure to act risks civil rights exposure, inequitable access for students and families with disabilities, and potential loss of federal standing.
The opportunity
The recently adopted 2026–2027 budget is active and signals readiness to procure, while the Interactive Online Learning Grant offers a potential supplemental funding pathway. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the district to remediate gaps systematically and meet the federal deadline without emergency-pace costs.

Student Transportation · Fleet Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district operates fleet tracking but lacks documented dash-cam and driver-behavior telematics, creating contractor liability ambiguity and claims data opacity. A recently closed fleet RFP signals active procurement interest, and the 2026–2027 budget includes targeted increases in student transportation funding.
The opportunity
Newly adopted budget allocations for student transportation create a timely funding pathway for expanded telematics capabilities. Addressing visibility and accountability gaps now reduces liability exposure and strengthens safety outcomes for students and the district.

IT Modernization · Student Device Security
High Priority
About this project
The district's IT environment is fragmented across security and operations tooling, creating visibility and management gaps across a large 1:1 student device program. Active strategic initiatives around endpoint security and technology operations modernization are underway, though recent budget shifts require careful alignment of funding to project scope.
The opportunity
The district's newly adopted 2026–2027 budget includes increased investment in security and monitoring services, and the Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative offers a potential no-cost funding pathway. Acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the district to consolidate tooling, reduce operational risk, and satisfy cybersecurity compliance requirements under Texas Education Code §11.175.

Cybersecurity · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The district's current password management solution lacks enterprise-grade controls needed to support a growing 1:1 device program and student endpoint security initiative. Texas Education Code §11.175 requires documented cybersecurity policies and access controls, creating a compliance obligation that the existing tool may not adequately address.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative offers a potential no-cost funding pathway, and the district's newly adopted 2026–2027 budget includes increased allocations for security and monitoring services. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns procurement with available funding and advances compliance readiness ahead of audit review.
