EOP Modernization and Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's Emergency Operations Plan is at least six years old and overdue for mandated review, with a documented failure in mass-notification timeliness during a real threat incident. Texas multihazard EOP submission requirements and safety audit mandates create active compliance risk for a district serving over 13,000 students.
The opportunity
Active SVPP and public safety grant funding, combined with an approved 2026–2027 budget and bond-funded technology upgrades, create a viable funding pathway now. Leadership transitions and a hard compliance deadline make this the optimal window to close preparedness gaps and protect students, staff, and community members.

Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has no documented plan to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA standards required under the federal ADA Title II web rule, with a hard compliance deadline of April 26, 2028. Existing web infrastructure presents unresolved gaps, exposing the district to legal liability and inequitable access for students, families, and staff with disabilities.
The opportunity
Active grant funding—including a multi-year interactive online learning grant and a $2M state workforce grant—may offset compliance implementation costs. With a new Technology Director in place and FY 2026–2027 budget approved, now is the optimal moment to establish a structured, audit-ready accessibility roadmap before the federal deadline.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district faces converging renewals for endpoint detection, access control, and network cameras by September 2026, alongside active Texas cybersecurity incident reporting mandates. Identified gaps in identity and access management and endpoint coverage, combined with an interim Technology Director, elevate transition-related risk to operations and compliance posture.
The opportunity
The September 2026 renewal deadline creates a defined procurement window aligned with the district's approved FY budget and bond-funded technology upgrades. Acting now enables platform consolidation, supports compliance continuity, and leverages cooperative purchasing vehicles already in use to reduce procurement friction.

Discuss this project →Strengthen Fleet Safety and Incident Documentation
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
The district has experienced multiple fleet accidents with documented deductible payments, yet incident details and video evidence remain largely undocumented, creating unresolved liability exposure. A routing solution is being implemented, but driver behavior monitoring and video telematics capabilities are absent, leaving a critical safety gap.
The opportunity
A confirmed bus fleet expansion and active transportation initiative make this the right moment to layer in comprehensive driver safety and incident documentation capabilities. Cooperative purchasing agreements are in place, and the district's approved 2026–2027 budget with bond-funded technology upgrades supports procurement without delay.

Digital Learning · EdTech Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district is actively building out a Virtual High School and expanding digital instructional materials as part of a funded Website & Digital Services initiative. Existing productivity and creative software licenses are in place, but broader digital learning infrastructure requires expansion to meet instructional goals across a large student population.
The opportunity
The 2026–2029 Interactive Online Learning Grant explicitly covers software, hardware, and SaaS licenses, and the approved 2026–2027 budget includes bond-funded technology upgrades alongside a $2M state grant. Acting now aligns procurement with active funding windows and supports sustained, multi-year instructional technology investment.
