EOP Modernization and Mass Notification Upgrade
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district faces documented emergency preparedness gaps, including an EOP requiring review by September 2026, unresolved intruder-detection audit findings, and a poorly rated mass notification system. These deficiencies create measurable compliance and operational risk for a district serving over 50,000 students.
The opportunity
The September 2026 EOP deadline and awarded SAFE grant funding create a defined, near-term window to act within current budget approvals. Addressing these gaps now advances a stated district strategic priority and reduces liability exposure for students, staff, and the broader community.

Cybersecurity · K–12 IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks unified endpoint detection, response, and software deployment coverage across non-Apple devices, creating security gaps across a large student-device environment. Cybersecurity mandates and active 1:1 device initiatives compound the operational risk of leaving Windows and non-Apple endpoints without managed protection.
The opportunity
The Texas K–12 Cybersecurity Initiative grant offers a no-cost funding path for managed EDR deployment, reducing fiscal burden during a period of budget constraint. With over $14 million in annual IT spend and continued security investment already approved, the district is positioned to act within the current grant cycle and close a critical protection gap districtwide.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Driver Behavior Monitoring Deployment
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
Recent accidents involving district vehicles—including a police unit and a school bus—expose a documented safety gap in fleet-wide monitoring and driver-behavior oversight. As a self-insured district, the absence of onboard camera systems increases liability exposure and limits the ability to reconstruct fault without third-party video evidence.
The opportunity
Districtwide transportation investment has been approved in the current budget cycle, creating a timely path to act. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use by the district can streamline procurement and accelerate deployment, reducing risk to students, staff, and public funds.

Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The district faces a legally binding WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 26, 2027, with current digital portals and communication tools unconfirmed as compliant. Unresolved gaps elevate legal and reputational risk while limiting equitable access for families and community members.
The opportunity
The fixed 2027 deadline creates a defined procurement window, and the Interactive Online Learning Grant offers conditional funding for accessibility-enabled digital tools. Acting within the current fiscal cycle supports compliance, reduces liability exposure, and advances the district's two-way family communication initiative.
