Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The academy's Emergency Operations Plan review is overdue, creating a direct compliance gap, while the absence of a formal mass-notification system leaves staff, students, and families dependent on informal channels like social media for critical alerts. Limited documented preparedness exercises further elevate operational and safety risk.
The opportunity
An incoming leadership transition creates a timely window for new preparedness investments, and grant programs aligned to school safety and homeland security offer a clear funding path with potential for limited local match. Acting within the current fiscal cycle addresses compliance mandates and meaningfully strengthens campus-wide emergency readiness.
School Safety Enhancement Program
Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & ADA Digital Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The academy has identified gaps in website accessibility that do not meet WCAG 2.1 and ADA standards, creating measurable legal and reputational exposure. Unresolved accessibility barriers limit equitable access to public-facing digital services for students, families, and community members.
The opportunity
Increased federal scrutiny of ADA digital compliance in K–12 settings makes proactive remediation a lower-cost path than reactive legal response. Addressing gaps now aligns with the upcoming fiscal cycle and supports equitable service delivery across the school community.

Discuss this project →Strengthening Cybersecurity and Password Management Controls
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Documented gaps in cybersecurity controls and password management practices present growing risk to student data, staff systems, and operational continuity. Existing technology guidance is outdated, leaving the district without a current, enforceable framework aligned to modern compliance expectations.
The opportunity
A higher FY2025-26 per-pupil foundation allowance and available state-level program funding create increased fiscal headroom for cybersecurity investment. An incoming leadership transition offers a timely opening to prioritize and formalize controls before the next budget cycle closes.

Discuss this project →Strengthen Student Transport Safety and Fleet Visibility
Student Safety · Fleet Monitoring
High Priority
About this project
The academy faces moderate but unresolved safety gaps in student transportation, including pickup/dropoff congestion, unwitnessed incidents due to absent onboard recording, and risk of liability from unattributed nearby crashes. Without improved fleet visibility, incident documentation and response remain reactive and incomplete.
The opportunity
An upcoming leadership transition creates a timely window to advance transportation safety priorities and establish new operational standards. Investments in fleet monitoring may align with school safety funding streams and support stronger incident accountability ahead of the next fiscal cycle.
Document Workflow Modernization & Digital Process Consolidation
IT Modernization · Operational Efficiency
High Priority
About this project
Charlton Heston Academy has identified consolidation opportunities in document workflows, but no active strategic initiatives are currently driving this effort. Without a formal modernization roadmap, operational inefficiencies and potential accessibility compliance exposure (WCAG/ADA) may persist across administrative processes.
The opportunity
Improved per-pupil funding in FY2025–26 creates fiscal headroom for investment, and the incoming superintendent transition offers a timely window to establish new priorities. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to streamline procurement once a formal need is established.
