EOP Review & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Campus Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The campus Emergency Operations Plan is unverified and overdue for review under the active Texas EOP review cycle, with a compliance deadline of September 30, 2026. Mass notification currently relies on informal tools with no contract or performance data, creating measurable operational and compliance risk during emergencies.
The opportunity
The September 2026 state deadline creates immediate urgency, and potential grant funding is contingent on meeting EOP conditions—making early action critical to both compliance and funding eligibility. Addressing these gaps now strengthens campus safety, reduces liability exposure, and aligns with the current fiscal planning cycle.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The campus operates a fragmented security stack with gaps in centralized identity management, MFA controls, and no confirmed password management solution, while an active firewall refresh need approaches a 2028 end-of-life deadline. Participation in the Texas E-Rate Cybersecurity Pilot and a newly appointed CIO signal an open window for security stack consolidation and endpoint modernization.
The opportunity
Confirmed budget increases in Data Processing and Security services, combined with the active Texas E-Rate Cybersecurity Pilot and the Texas K–12 Cybersecurity Initiative grant, provide a well-funded, near-term path to address identity, endpoint, and vulnerability management gaps before the current fiscal cycle closes.

Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The campus has a formal WCAG 2.1 Level AA commitment with annual audits and a strict 30-day remediation requirement for identified issues. A newly appointed 504/SPED lead under incoming College Prep leadership elevates accessibility compliance as an institutional priority ahead of the April 2027 deadline.
The opportunity
The April 2027 compliance deadline, recurring annual audit obligations, and a 30-day fix requirement create sustained urgency for immediate action. The Interactive Online Learning Grant and district technology allotments offer viable funding paths, aligning well with the current fiscal planning cycle.

Cybersecurity · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The district has active centralized identity and Zero Trust initiatives but lacks a dedicated password management solution, leaving credential security gaps across campuses. Confirmed MFA deficiencies and a fragmented security stack elevate risk to student data, staff accounts, and overall network integrity.
The opportunity
The Texas K–12 Cybersecurity Initiative provides an active funding path for MFA and identity controls, and an 11.24% budget increase in Security and Monitoring Services signals dedicated capacity this fiscal cycle. Acting now aligns with the district's E-Rate Cybersecurity Pilot participation and closes compliance gaps before the next audit window.

Discuss this project →Fleet Safety & Transportation Technology Modernization
Fleet Management · Student Transportation Safety
High Priority
About this project
The campus operates a large student transportation fleet with existing GPS and real-time tracking tools currently flagged for technology refresh. With a proactive focus on preventative maintenance and driver safety, aging fleet technology presents operational risk to student safety and service continuity if not addressed within the current planning cycle.
The opportunity
The adopted 2026–2027 budget includes increased student transportation funding, signaling an active planning window for a strategic fleet technology upgrade. Addressing this now supports safer student transport outcomes, reduces long-term maintenance costs, and aligns with the district's proactive safety posture ahead of the next fiscal cycle.
