Emergency Operations Plan Development & Lifecycle Management
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
Madison Academy has no published Emergency Operations Plan and no documented HSEEP-style exercises, creating significant compliance and operational risk. A biennial EOP review requirement tied directly to grant eligibility makes this gap an immediate liability for the district.
The opportunity
The biennial EOP review deadline and annual budget adoption cycle create a fixed, near-term window for action. Federal preparedness grants—including BRIC and HSGP—provide a strong funding path for districts with a current, maintained EOP, making timely investment essential.
Mass Notification System Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The academy lacks a modern mass-notification system, limiting its ability to reliably alert staff and community members during emergencies. This gap, combined with an overdue EOP review cycle, elevates compliance and preparedness risk for the organization.
The opportunity
The BRIC grant program directly funds public alert and warning system improvements, offering a clear financial pathway with upcoming deadlines. Acting within the current grant window supports EOP compliance, strengthens community safety, and aligns with the annual budget planning cycle.
Web Accessibility & ADA/WCAG Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The academy faces ongoing ADA/WCAG 2.1 website compliance requirements and a budget transparency mandate, with current infrastructure potentially limiting native accessibility capabilities. Unresolved compliance gaps create legal exposure and restrict equitable public access to essential information.
The opportunity
WCAG 2.1 compliance is a persistent legal obligation, and the annual budget cycle creates a structured window to fund remediation before the next fiscal year. Addressing accessibility gaps now reduces liability risk and ensures equitable digital access for students, families, and the public.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The academy has established endpoint and access control policies and relies on Google Workspace, but lacks identifiable endpoint protection or credential management tooling. This gap exposes staff and student data to unauthorized access and leaves the district without a defensible security posture.
The opportunity
The Homeland Security Grant Program (HSGP) includes cybersecurity as an eligible initiative, offering a potential funding pathway aligned with the current grant cycle. Addressing this gap now supports policy compliance, reduces breach risk, and aligns with the district's annual budget adoption window.
Fleet Telematics & Student Transportation Safety
Fleet Management · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
No fleet monitoring solution is currently in place, creating visibility gaps in student transportation safety and operational accountability. Recent budget reductions to Pupil Transportation Services and a low safety urgency rating signal limited near-term readiness for investment in this area.
The opportunity
This initiative is best positioned for a future fiscal cycle when transportation budgets stabilize and a clearer safety mandate or compliance trigger emerges. Monitoring for budget recovery and enrollment-driven service expansion will help identify the right window to advance this project.
