Emergency Operations Plan & Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly accessible Emergency Operations Plan, has no confirmed mass notification system, and has no emergency management technology in place. Compliance mandates under Michigan Publication 201a and NIMS implementation are unmet, exposing students and staff to elevated operational and safety risk.
The opportunity
HSGP and BRIC grant funding are currently aligned to emergency preparedness initiatives, and the district's budget cycle closes June 30th, creating a near-term window to act. Addressing these gaps now reduces compliance exposure, strengthens crisis readiness, and leverages available funding with limited local match required.
Student Fleet Safety & Telematics Modernization
Student Transportation · Fleet Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district transports over 1,500 students daily with no identified fleet safety technology—such as dash cams or telematics—creating measurable operational risk and compliance exposure. Without visibility into vehicle performance and driver behavior, the district lacks the data needed to protect students and demonstrate duty-of-care accountability.
The opportunity
A potential capital bond and a recently passed operating millage renewal signal a positive budget environment for capital-intensive investments. Cooperative purchasing vehicles offer a streamlined, compliant procurement path, and acting within the current fiscal cycle positions the district to close safety and compliance gaps before the June 30th budget deadline.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified gaps in cybersecurity and password management policy, heightened by a one-to-one student device initiative that expands the attack surface. Existing platforms such as Clever and Google Classroom present integration opportunities for identity and endpoint management to protect student and staff data.
The opportunity
A recently passed millage renewal provides an estimated $3.59M in new operating revenue, and the annual budget cycle ending June 30th creates a timely window for investment. Applicable grant programs may offset costs further, making this an opportune moment to close compliance and security gaps before the next fiscal year.
Web Accessibility & ADA Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified persistent gaps in WCAG 2.1 compliance across public-facing digital portals and websites, creating ongoing legal exposure and equity barriers for community members with disabilities. This is a recurring operational challenge rather than a one-time fix, requiring sustained investment and governance.
The opportunity
With a positive budget outlook supported by recently passed operating millage revenue, the district is well-positioned to address this continuous compliance risk within the current fiscal cycle. Acting now reduces legal liability, improves equitable access for all community members, and aligns with active digital services priorities.

Discuss this project →Modernizing Student Device & Endpoint Management
IT Modernization · Student Technology
High Priority
About this project
The district's one-to-one student technology initiative has expanded device deployment without confirmed endpoint management tooling in place, creating visibility and security gaps across the fleet. With an active IT modernization strategy and approximately $268K in annual technology spend, the need for centralized device oversight is both operationally urgent and budget-supported.
The opportunity
A recently passed millage renewal and a potential capital bond provide viable funding pathways aligned with the district's current planning cycle. Acting within this fiscal window allows the district to close device management gaps, reduce operational risk, and strengthen stewardship of its student technology investment.
