Emergency Operations Plan Development & School Safety Modernization
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district faces critical emergency preparedness gaps, including an EOP of uncertain age, an unverified mass-notification system, and a recent lockdown incident with no documented parent communication or after-action review. Multihazard EOP submissions are mandated by compliance requirements, and a newly appointed Director of Safety & Security was hired in August 2026 to address these deficiencies.
The opportunity
The recently approved 2026–2027 budget and active public safety initiatives—including an SRO interlocal agreement and a safety-allotment deployment—create an immediate procurement window. Addressing EOP gaps now reduces compliance and operational risk while aligning with available safety funding and the district's recurring safety-audit program.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks enterprise-grade password management and relies on a limited computer management tool that does not provide full remote monitoring and management coverage. Expanding 1:1 Chromebook and staff device programs are widening the endpoint security gap, increasing exposure to credential-based threats and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative grant offers a direct funding pathway aligned with the current budget cycle. Acting now allows the district to close endpoint and credential security gaps while active device refresh programs create a natural deployment window.

Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district faces a non-deferrable ADA Title II deadline requiring WCAG 2.1 Level AA conformance across digital properties, including web content and public-facing documents and forms. Gaps in accessibility and document remediation expose the district to compliance risk and limit equitable access for students, families, and staff.
The opportunity
The regulatory deadline creates an immediate procurement driver aligned with the current budget cycle, following the district's recent 2026–2027 budget adoption. Addressing these gaps now reduces legal and audit exposure while expanding equitable digital access for the entire school community.

Discuss this project →Fleet Visibility & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks confirmed dash cameras, GPS, or telematics across its fleet, creating documented gaps in vehicle visibility and driver accountability. An auto insurance deductible payment signals realized risk exposure, and without safety monitoring tools in place, students and staff remain vulnerable to preventable incidents.
The opportunity
The district's recently adopted 2026–2027 budget and confirmed cooperative purchasing memberships create a streamlined path to procurement with reduced administrative burden. Addressing fleet visibility now mitigates ongoing insurance and liability risk while supporting the district's broader public safety and student transportation mission.

Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks documented parent notification protocols, as evidenced by a recent school lockdown with no confirmed family communication. Fragmented systems handling emergency planning separately from parent communication create compliance exposure and undermine coordinated crisis response.
The opportunity
With a newly appointed Director of Safety & Security, an active 2026–2027 budget, and multihazard EOP submission requirements pending, the district has a clear window to consolidate notification infrastructure. State safety allotment funding and cooperative procurement pathways support a cost-effective, phased approach this fiscal year.
