EOP Compliance & Emergency Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · K-12 Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The school lacks a publicly available, school-specific Emergency Operations Plan and documented HSEEP-style exercises, creating statutory compliance gaps under Michigan law (MCL 380.1308b). Manual phone and radio notification processes further elevate operational and life-safety risk for students and staff during emergencies.
The opportunity
Multiple active grant programs explicitly fund school emergency management and mass notification initiatives, and a June Public Budget Hearing signals a near-term decision window. Michigan's FY2025–26 per-pupil foundation allowance increase provides additional operating revenue, making this an actionable and well-funded moment to close compliance and safety gaps.
Mass Notification & Emergency Communications Modernization
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The school currently depends on manual phone and radio notification workflows, with no publicly available school-specific emergency operations plan and unclear status of existing notification system contracts. These gaps create meaningful compliance risk under Michigan statutory requirements for school emergency plan review and elevate operational risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
An upcoming June budget hearing and a per-pupil funding increase signal a near-term decision window for investment. Multiple active grant programs explicitly support emergency management and mass notification initiatives, and cooperative purchasing vehicles such as MiDEAL offer accessible, compliant procurement pathways to move quickly.
Credential & Endpoint Security Modernization for K–12
Cybersecurity Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Without an enterprise password manager in place, the school faces growing compliance exposure under K–12 cybersecurity mandates, leaving credentials and endpoints inconsistently protected. A lean IT structure dependent on a charter operator increases the risk of policy gaps that could compromise student and staff data.
The opportunity
With a public budget hearing approaching in June and a per-pupil foundation allowance increase for FY2025–26, this is a timely window to fund credential and endpoint controls. Cooperative procurement pathways such as MiDEAL reduce administrative burden and accelerate compliant purchasing within the current fiscal cycle.
