Emergency Operations Plan Development & Compliance Review
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
Marshall Academy lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a designated Emergency Management Coordinator, and reliable mass notification capabilities — gaps that expose 295 students to significant operational and legal risk. Michigan Publication 201 mandates EOP review every four years, creating an active and overdue compliance obligation.
The opportunity
The approaching school year start creates an immediate decision window, and multiple state and federal grant programs directly fund emergency preparedness initiatives with limited local match required. Acting now addresses compliance, reduces liability, and positions the academy to secure available funding within the current grant cycle.

Student Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
Marshall Academy lacks reliable mass notification capabilities, limiting its ability to reach staff and students during emergencies — a gap directly tied to the absence of a formal Emergency Operations Plan. Michigan Publication 201 mandates EOP review every four years, and unresolved deficiencies elevate both compliance and life-safety risk.
The opportunity
The approaching school year creates an immediate window to close critical notification gaps before students and staff return. Grant programs supporting school safety and emergency preparedness may offset costs, and cooperative purchasing agreements can accelerate compliant procurement within the current fiscal cycle.

Digital Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
Public-facing digital properties show gaps in WCAG and ADA accessibility standards, exposing the institution to legal and regulatory risk. These compliance obligations overlap with broader IT needs, compounding operational pressure on a small-enrollment academy with limited staff capacity.
The opportunity
Incremental accessibility improvements align with the active school year planning cycle and may be eligible for state or federal funding support. Addressing gaps now reduces legal exposure, advances equitable access for all students and community members, and supports responsible stewardship of public resources.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The academy currently lacks documented enterprise-grade security tools, creating measurable exposure to credential-based threats and data breaches. Cybersecurity and password management have been identified as active compliance drivers, elevating risk to student data, staff systems, and operational continuity.
The opportunity
Michigan's FY27 per-pupil funding increase may open modest but actionable operating budget for cybersecurity investments, and cooperative purchasing agreements can streamline procurement. Addressing these gaps now supports compliance, reduces breach risk, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.
