Modernize Emergency Operations & Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks an accessible Emergency Operations Plan, a mass-notification platform, and documented exercises or audits — gaps that create serious safety and compliance risk. A clear mandate for EOPs and the absence of verified preparedness infrastructure leave students, staff, and the broader community underprotected.
The opportunity
The FY26 COPS SVPP grant provides a time-sensitive funding path for emergency preparedness initiatives, and an incoming Director of Schools creates a near-term leadership window to prioritize this work. Acting now aligns with compliance mandates, strengthens district-wide safety posture, and positions the district ahead of the fiscal deadline.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The district's public-facing digital portals reference outdated WCAG 2.0 standards from 2017, creating a legal compliance gap and a service delivery barrier ahead of the 2027 WCAG 2.1 mandate. Residents, families, and students with disabilities face inequitable access, and the district carries growing legal and reputational exposure the longer remediation is deferred.
The opportunity
The 2027 WCAG 2.1 deadline provides a defined compliance window, and the incoming Director of Schools creates a near-term catalyst for modernization prioritization. Acting now allows the district to remediate proactively, reduce legal risk, and align accessibility investments with the current fiscal planning cycle before urgency becomes a crisis.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district is actively participating in the FCC Cybersecurity Pilot Program, reflecting early investment in strengthening its security posture. However, the initiative remains emerging — no formal cybersecurity mandates are in place and specific capability gaps have yet to be fully defined, leaving the district's systems and data at continued risk.
The opportunity
Active enrollment in the FCC Cybersecurity Pilot Program and alignment with the FY26 COPS SVPP grant create a near-term funding pathway to formalize and expand protections. An incoming Director of Schools presents a timely leadership window to advance procurement decisions and institutionalize cybersecurity as a district priority.

Discuss this project →Fleet & Asset Management Modernization
Fleet Management · Asset Compliance
High Priority
About this project
An audit finding revealed inaccurate capital-asset records for district vehicles and equipment, and the district lacks demonstrable safety telemetry. While no immediate crisis exists, the gap creates preventive compliance and operational risk requiring accurate asset tracking and fleet safety oversight.
The opportunity
An incoming Director of Schools creates a near-term leadership window to advance modernization priorities, and cooperative purchasing options can streamline procurement within existing budget constraints. Addressing the audit finding now establishes a defensible compliance posture ahead of the upcoming fiscal cycle.
