Unify Emergency Communications for Campus Safety Compliance
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
Fragmented 911 alerting, parent notification, and IT alerting systems create critical coordination gaps during emergencies. Active mandates under Texas Education Code 37.2071 and 37.108 require structured emergency management practices, with documented consequences for non-compliance.
The opportunity
FY2026-27 budget allocations for security and available Phone Free Schools grant funding create a timely pathway to consolidate communications and close compliance gaps. Acting within the current fiscal cycle reduces audit exposure and strengthens coordinated emergency response for students and staff.

Web Accessibility · Digital Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district must achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance across digital portals, documents, and multimedia by the federal deadline of April 26, 2028. Current gaps in accessible content and digital infrastructure create legal exposure and risk excluding community members from equitable access to public information.
The opportunity
A TEA Interactive Online Learning grant explicitly covers accessibility tools, SaaS licenses, document remediation, and multimedia—providing a direct funding pathway with limited local match required. Acting within the current planning cycle allows the district to align procurement through confirmed cooperative purchasing vehicles, reduce compliance risk, and ensure equitable digital access well ahead of the federal deadline.

IT Modernization · EdTech Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
A growing one-to-one device initiative is expanding the district's endpoint footprint without a unified management platform, creating gaps in device visibility, security oversight, and operational control. With $2.4M allocated to data processing and $4M+ in annual IT spend, the absence of centralized endpoint management poses measurable risk to instructional continuity and IT governance.
The opportunity
The TEA Interactive Online Learning grant explicitly covers hardware and SaaS licenses, offering a viable funding pathway aligned with the current planning cycle. Acting now supports the district's one-to-one rollout, reduces operational risk, and leverages cooperative purchasing contracts already in place to streamline procurement.

Discuss this project →Enterprise Credential Security Gap Remediation
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district currently lacks an enterprise password management solution, leaving credential security unaddressed amid active vulnerability assessments and an HB121 resolution requiring heightened cybersecurity posture. This gap elevates risk of unauthorized access, data exposure, and audit findings across district systems and staff accounts.
The opportunity
The proposed FY2026-27 budget allocates $1.3M toward security, providing a confirmed funding pathway aligned with current planning cycles. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are in place, enabling streamlined procurement and faster implementation to close this credential risk before the new fiscal year.

Fleet Management · Operational Accountability
High Priority
About this project
The district's vendor-managed fleet operates without centralized telematics or oversight tools, creating a gap in accountability and evidence documentation. While no active safety incidents are on record, the absence of visibility infrastructure introduces long-term operational and vendor-oversight risk.
The opportunity
Cooperative purchasing contracts already in place streamline procurement, reducing administrative burden when the district is ready to act. Addressing this gap proactively supports responsible stewardship of transportation funds and positions the district ahead of future compliance or insurance scrutiny.
