Close Emergency Preparedness Gaps with Dedicated Mass Notification
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's EOP status is unconfirmed, and its current notification infrastructure relies on a general-purpose communications platform not designed for emergency management. Recent weather and disaster incidents, combined with active-threat preparedness exercises, expose students and staff to meaningful safety risk.
The opportunity
A voter-approved safety and security bond provides direct, available funding, and cooperative purchasing eligibility simplifies procurement. Acting within the current budget cycle closes a critical preparedness gap and positions the district for stronger compliance and community confidence.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The district faces a WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance deadline of April 2028 for its public-facing website and digital communications, creating a defined regulatory obligation. Current platforms may not fully meet accessibility standards, placing the district at risk of non-compliance and limiting equitable access for students, families, and staff.
The opportunity
Active grant funding streams — including instructional technology allotments — provide viable paths to offset project costs within the current planning cycle. Acting ahead of the 2028 deadline allows the district to remediate gaps methodically, avoid last-minute compliance risk, and ensure digital content is equitably accessible to all community members.

Fleet Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks clear bus video and GPS coverage with undefined retention practices, creating gaps in defensible incident documentation. This exposes the district to liability risk and undermines the ability to ensure consistent, verifiable student transportation safety.
The opportunity
Voter-approved safety and technology bonds provide an active funding pathway, and cooperative purchasing agreements offer a streamlined procurement route. Addressing fleet monitoring now reduces liability exposure and aligns with the district's demonstrated commitment to capital investment in safety technology.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
Johnson City ISD currently lacks endpoint management and password management solutions, leaving meaningful gaps in its cybersecurity posture. With limited internal IT resources serving a small district, the absence of streamlined security tooling elevates operational risk for staff, students, and district data.
The opportunity
A voter-approved technology bond ($600,000) provides direct funding for this initiative, and active instructional technology grant streams offer additional budget pathways. This greenfield environment allows the district to establish a right-sized security foundation now, ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle, with cooperative purchasing available to simplify procurement.
