Emergency Operations Plan Compliance & Readiness
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district carries a critical emergency preparedness gap, with unresolved EOP review documentation, an undefined emergency management coordinator role, and no unified mass notification system. Michigan law MCL 380.1308b mandates biennial EOP review and documented drills, placing the district at direct compliance and operational risk.
The opportunity
The August 2026 budget and millage vote cycle creates a near-term funding decision window, while FEMA grants (HSGP, BRIC) offer eligible pathways for emergency management technology with limited local match. Acting now aligns with the district's top strategic priority and reduces compliance exposure ahead of the next review cycle.
Mass Notification System Consolidation
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district operates a fragmented notification ecosystem split between school and local law enforcement platforms, with no unified mass notification system in place. This gap undermines coordinated emergency communication and creates compliance risk under Michigan's biennial EOP review mandate (MCL 380.1308b).
The opportunity
Michigan EOP compliance requirements, overdue drill documentation, and a critical August 2026 budget and millage decision window create immediate urgency. Federal grant programs, including HSGP and BRIC, provide eligible funding paths for alert and notification systems, reducing local fiscal burden while advancing a top district safety priority.
Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Modernization
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
The district faces elevated transportation risk due to an ongoing bus driver shortage and the absence of deployed dash-camera or telematics systems across a high-mileage fleet. This gap exposes the district to unmonitored liability, safety incidents, and limited operational visibility over daily student transport.
The opportunity
An August 2026 millage vote represents a near-term funding decision window that could unlock resources for fleet safety technology. Acting within the current fiscal planning cycle positions the district to reduce liability exposure and improve transportation accountability before the next school year.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district's public-facing digital properties have identified gaps in WCAG 2.1 accessibility standards, creating legal exposure and limiting equitable access for community members with disabilities. Without remediation, the district remains at risk of civil complaints and non-compliance with federal accessibility requirements.
The opportunity
Accessibility improvements can be staged by risk severity and integrated into existing digital modernization efforts, making this actionable within current budget cycles. Proactive remediation reduces legal liability, demonstrates public accountability, and supports equitable access for all community members.
Endpoint Management & IT Operations Modernization
IT Modernization · Endpoint & Identity Management
High Priority
About this project
The district's centralized endpoint management environment is aging and presents consolidation gaps, including credential management integration with Microsoft 365 and alignment with existing ticketing and backup tools. A recent $353,000 technology budget reduction signals pressure to demonstrate clear ROI and reduce redundant systems.
The opportunity
With $927,117 in annual IT and software spend and an active FY2026–27 budget cycle, the district has both the scale and the fiscal urgency to reprioritize toward consolidated, cost-efficient endpoint solutions. Acting within the current budget window positions the district to reduce operational risk and restore trimmed technology capacity.
