New Campus Emergency Readiness & Mass Notification
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a verified mass notification platform, a documented EOP review cycle, and HSEEP-style exercises, creating measurable compliance gaps under MCL 380.1308b and NIMS requirements tied to federal funding eligibility. The September 2026 opening of a new campus establishes a firm deadline for closing these gaps before students and staff occupy the facility.
The opportunity
Federal preparedness grant programs, including HSGP and BRIC, offer viable funding pathways aligned with this project scope, and the district's planned campus expansion signals budget readiness for emergency infrastructure investment. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures systems are tested, compliant, and operational before the new campus opens.
New Campus Technology and Emergency Readiness by 2026
Campus Infrastructure · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
A new campus opening in September 2026 creates urgent, concurrent technology needs across networking, physical security, communications, and emergency notification systems. Unverified EOP review cycles and the absence of a mass notification platform expose the district to compliance risk under state and federal mandates.
The opportunity
The September 2026 deadline drives near-term procurement decisions across multiple technology domains simultaneously. Increased per-pupil state funding and an active grant award signal budget availability, and alignment with federal emergency preparedness programs may offset capital costs for qualifying systems.

Student Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks documented fleet safety tools, creating measurable student-transport liability exposure and an unaddressed gap in proactive risk management. Without telematics or driver monitoring in place, the district has limited visibility into fleet operations and no structured framework for preventing incidents.
The opportunity
A greenfield environment and a new campus opening in September 2026 create a clear, time-sensitive window to establish fleet safety infrastructure before operational demands scale. Grant funding pathways aligned with safety and emergency management investments may offset costs, and action now supports responsible stewardship of student welfare and public funds.
Cybersecurity Readiness for Campus Expansion
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
A planned new campus opening significantly expands the institution's digital attack surface, while current endpoint protection and password management practices reflect broader IT posture gaps. Without structured security controls in place, the district faces growing exposure ahead of a hard operational deadline.
The opportunity
The new campus opening creates a defined timeline for security readiness, and cybersecurity solutions are explicitly cited as eligible for available grant funding. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the district to close endpoint gaps, support a leadership transition, and protect staff and student data proactively.
