EOP Compliance & School Safety Readiness
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's Emergency Operations Plan status is unknown, and Tennessee's SAVE Act mandates annual EOP submission by July 1, 2026. With no confirmed post-disaster exercise or audit findings following a county-declared disaster, compliance and operational readiness gaps are significant.
The opportunity
The July 1 SAVE Act deadline and a June 24 budget hearing create an immediate decision window, while the FY26 School Violence Prevention Program grant offers a funding path for emergency preparedness solutions ahead of its August 2026 deadline.

Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district currently has no identified mass-notification vendor or contract, leaving a critical emergency preparedness gap across fragmented technology, safety, and transportation functions. With EOP compliance required under Tennessee's SAVE Act by July 1, 2026, and no unified alerting platform in place, students and staff face elevated safety and regulatory risk.
The opportunity
The FY26 School Violence Prevention Program grant, with an August 2026 deadline, offers a direct funding path for mass-notification and panic-alert capabilities. Acting within the current budget cycle aligns with the district's active FY26–27 budget process and established willingness to invest in school safety.

IT Modernization · Endpoint Security
High Priority
About this project
The district's multi-year IT and Cybersecurity Modernization initiative (2023–2028) is underway, but a fragmented, split endpoint environment creates operational gaps and security exposure. Without a unified management platform, IT staff face inconsistent oversight, elevated risk, and limited visibility across devices district-wide.
The opportunity
An E-Rate contract renewal on the near-term board agenda and an active FY26–27 budget cycle create a timely procurement window for infrastructure and software decisions. Consolidating endpoint management now supports long-term cost efficiency, aligns with the district's strategic initiative, and may be eligible for state or federal technology funding.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district's active IT modernization initiative and Cybersecurity CTE pathway signal growing security maturity, yet formal credential and password management practices remain undefined. Without structured controls, districts face elevated risk of unauthorized access, data exposure, and audit findings.
The opportunity
The 2023–2028 IT modernization initiative creates a strategic planning window to embed credential management into broader security infrastructure. Addressing this now aligns with the upcoming fiscal cycle, supports CTE program integrity, and positions the district for relevant state and federal cybersecurity funding.
