Emergency Operations Plan Compliance & Readiness
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, has no designated Emergency Management Coordinator, and has relied on county-level mass notification since its EOP review fell overdue in 2024. This gap conflicts with state compliance mandates and the district's own Strategic Plan commitment to a safe learning environment.
The opportunity
A voter-approved $14.8M bond and FEMA Homeland Security Grant Program funding with deadlines in July 2026 create a near-term, well-funded window to close this compliance gap. Acting now aligns with active budget planning, new leadership priorities, and the district's obligation to protect students and staff.

Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently depends on a county-operated mass notification system, leaving it without autonomous control over emergency communications to students, staff, and families. This gap undermines district-level incident response and conflicts with an overdue EOP compliance mandate.
The opportunity
Emergency preparedness grants with July 2026 deadlines and a voter-approved $14.8M bond provide strong, near-term funding pathways for this investment. Acting now aligns with active budget planning, a new Superintendent's strategic priorities, and overdue EOP compliance requirements.

Digital Equity · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified WCAG/ADA compliance gaps across its public-facing website and digital services, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable access for community members with disabilities. Without remediation, the district risks ongoing non-compliance and exclusion of residents who depend on accessible digital information.
The opportunity
A voter-approved bond with explicit ADA and accessibility upgrade provisions creates a direct, near-term funding path for this work. Acting within the current bond window aligns procurement with active budget planning and advances the district's stated Strategic Plan commitment to digital services equity.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified gaps in privileged access management and endpoint oversight within its existing IT environment, creating measurable exposure to cyber incidents. Addressing these gaps is a named priority in the district's Strategic Plan, signaling institutional recognition of the operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
Grant opportunities with July 2026 deadlines provide a near-term funding path for cybersecurity initiatives, aligning with active budget planning cycles. Acting within this window allows the district to close access and endpoint gaps, reduce breach risk, and demonstrate responsible stewardship of public resources.

Discuss this project →Fleet & Transportation Safety Monitoring
Student Transportation · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently lacks confirmed dash cameras and telematics on its bus fleet, leaving rural routes, stop-arm violations, and on-bus incidents without documented oversight. While no accidents or lawsuits are on record, the absence of monitoring tools represents a measurable and growing safety gap for students and drivers.
The opportunity
The district's voter-approved $14.8M bond includes district-wide infrastructure spending, creating a near-term capital funding window to bundle fleet safety technology into a broader safety initiative. Confirmed cooperative purchasing vehicles are in place, which can streamline and accelerate procurement within the current planning cycle.
