Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
This district lacks a publicly available EOP, has unclear mass notification integration, and manages drill reporting manually — creating measurable compliance and safety gaps. Michigan law mandates EOP reviews, NIMS requirements are tied to federal grant eligibility, and drill log documentation obligations remain unmet.
The opportunity
A June 2025 board budget hearing creates a defined procurement window, and federal grants such as HSGP and BRIC offer viable funding paths with potential cooperative purchasing options. Incoming leadership presents a timely opening to advance policy reviews, close preparedness gaps, and strengthen community safety outcomes.
Mass Notification & Emergency Alerting Modernization
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's current parent alerting tool lacks integration with jurisdiction-level emergency notification systems, and no publicly available Emergency Operations Plan exists. Compliance mandates—including Michigan EOP review requirements and NIMS standards tied to federal grants—remain unmet, elevating operational and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
With a board budget hearing approaching in June 2025 and grant programs such as HSGP and BRIC offering eligible funding paths, the window to act is near-term. Modernizing mass notification now closes preparedness gaps, supports compliance, and strengthens district-wide emergency response for students, staff, and families.
Fleet Telematics & Student Transportation Safety Modernization
Student Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
A high-visibility incident involving a child left on a bus has drawn media scrutiny and triggered a formal policy review, exposing gaps in driver accountability and real-time fleet monitoring. Without telematics and onboard camera solutions, the district faces continued safety, liability, and reputational risk across its transportation operations.
The opportunity
The June 2025 budget cycle presents a near-term window to fund fleet safety improvements, and cooperative purchasing agreements may streamline procurement with reduced administrative burden. Acting now aligns with the board's policy review timeline and directly addresses documented safety gaps affecting students and staff.
NASPO ValuePoint
Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 Compliance Remediation
Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Gaps in WCAG 2.1 compliance have been identified across the district's web properties, creating risk of exclusion for users with disabilities and potential legal exposure. Without active remediation, the district remains out of alignment with federal accessibility standards affecting students, families, and staff.
The opportunity
The June 2025 board budget hearing presents a near-term window to prioritize and fund accessibility remediation aligned with the current fiscal cycle. Addressing compliance proactively reduces legal risk, supports equitable access to public information, and demonstrates responsible stewardship of public resources.
Cybersecurity & Credential Management Modernization
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Incoming technology leadership and an approaching June 2025 budget cycle signal a critical window for security policy review and credential management evaluation. Without formal cybersecurity controls in place, the district faces elevated risk of unauthorized access, data exposure, and audit findings affecting staff and student data.
The opportunity
Available grant funding through HSGP and BRIC explicitly covers cybersecurity tools, and the June 2025 budget hearing aligns procurement timing with leadership-driven technology evaluations. Acting now positions the district to close credential security gaps, satisfy emerging compliance expectations, and responsibly steward public funds.
