Fleet Safety & Telematics Expansion
Student Transportation Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
Following a recent school bus collision, the district faces heightened public scrutiny over driver behavior and fleet oversight. An existing telematics deployment leaves gaps in coverage, digitization, and maintenance tracking, elevating physical damage exposure and operational risk across a large fleet.
The opportunity
Active technology planning and approaching contract renewals create a near-term procurement window, with cooperative purchasing vehicles already in place to streamline the process. Modernizing and consolidating fleet systems now supports student safety outcomes, demonstrates fiscal stewardship, and aligns with the current budget cycle.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has active initiatives to upgrade its network operations center, strengthen authentication practices, and improve cybersecurity policy—yet a $35M budget deficit and leadership vacancies create execution risk. Federal contract obligations impose indirect security compliance pressure, and gaps in current infrastructure leave student data and district operations exposed.
The opportunity
Incoming technology leadership and approaching contract renewals create a near-term window to align modernization priorities with fiscal planning. Bond funds and cooperative procurement vehicles already in use can support compliant, cost-effective acquisition while demonstrating clear ROI against a constrained budget.

Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified gaps in its cardiac emergency response plan and public communication capabilities during critical incidents, while the status of its mass notification system remains uncertain. These gaps elevate operational and life-safety risk across campuses, particularly amid ongoing leadership transitions that may delay coordinated response.
The opportunity
Emergency management is an active district priority, and leadership instability creates urgency to establish reliable, clearly owned safety systems before the next incident occurs. Despite budget constraints, school safety investments align with targeted district spending and cooperative procurement vehicles already in use, supporting a viable path forward this fiscal cycle.
Website Accessibility & Digital Communications Modernization
Digital Accessibility · Community Communications
High Priority
About this project
The district's current web platform falls short of its accessibility goals, creating risk for families and community members who rely on digital communications. With an active initiative to replace the platform, gaps in ADA-aligned design and equitable access to public-facing information remain unresolved.
The opportunity
Leadership transitions and an open technology director role create a timely window to shape platform selection before decisions are locked in. Advancing this initiative now supports compliance readiness, improves family engagement, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.
Endpoint & Identity Security Modernization for K–12
Cybersecurity · Identity & Access Management
High Priority
About this project
The district is actively replacing hardware security keys and modernizing endpoint management across a distributed user base of over 24,500 students, creating significant identity and access management exposure during the transition. Federal contract obligations and a broad technology footprint amplify the risk of credential-based breaches if gaps in access controls remain unaddressed.
The opportunity
With cybersecurity modernization already named in the district's strategic plan and targeted technology investments continuing despite budget pressures, this project is positioned for near-term execution. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use can streamline procurement, and the initiative aligns with federal compliance requirements tied to existing contracts.
