Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The academy lacks a certified Emergency Operations Plan, a mass notification system, and a designated Emergency Management Coordinator — creating direct compliance risk under MCL 380.1308b. Despite an active drill program, these foundational gaps leave students, staff, and the institution exposed to operational and regulatory liability.
The opportunity
The COPS School Violence Prevention Program (SVPP) provides an eligible funding path for emergency notification technology, and the Michigan FY2026–27 per-pupil budget increase adds recurring operational flexibility. Acting within the current grant window closes compliance gaps and strengthens campus safety outcomes before the next certification cycle.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
An active OCR memo has flagged the academy's website and digital documents for WCAG/ADA accessibility violations, creating a direct legal and regulatory obligation. The current web platform requires remediation to meet federal standards, placing the institution at risk of enforcement action if left unaddressed.
The opportunity
The OCR memo establishes a clear, near-term compliance deadline that compresses the decision timeline. Michigan's FY2026–27 per-pupil funding increase provides modest recurring budget flexibility, and this initiative may align with state or federal accessibility funding. Acting now reduces legal exposure and ensures equitable digital access for all students and families.

High Priority
About this project
An active facility expansion procurement signals a near-term capital decision point, creating a parallel opportunity to integrate security and operational systems into new or renovated spaces. Coordinating technology investments alongside construction reduces long-term costs and avoids costly retrofits.
The opportunity
The open bid cycle and Michigan FY2026–27 per-pupil funding increase provide both a procurement window and added budget flexibility to advance this project now. Cooperative purchasing vehicles available to Michigan public schools can simplify procurement and accelerate timelines within the current fiscal cycle.
