Campus Safety & Emergency Preparedness Modernization
Emergency Management · Campus Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district carries a critically low emergency preparedness score, lacks a required cardiac emergency response plan, and has unverified EOP review cycles — all under growing media scrutiny. Texas mandates require the cardiac response plan by 2027–28, and the absence of a formalized multi-hazard EOP elevates both compliance and operational risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
The 2026–2027 budget includes a confirmed $586,911 increase in Security & Monitoring Services, with multiple budget-approved initiatives directly funding EOP development and layered campus security. Acting within the current fiscal cycle aligns spending with approved allocations and meets hard state compliance deadlines before the 2027–28 mandate takes effect.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The district has unresolved WCAG 2.1 Level AA recommendations and faces a firm April 26, 2027 deadline for WCAG 2.2 Level AA compliance, creating legal and accessibility risk across public-facing digital portals. Gaps in accessible communications also undermine family engagement and equitable access for students and community members with disabilities.
The opportunity
With the April 2027 compliance deadline approaching, the window to remediate and validate accessibility across digital properties is narrowing. The district's FY2026–2027 budget reflects a $434,911 increase in Data Processing Services, signaling available capacity to fund this work within the current planning cycle.

Cybersecurity & Compliance · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district faces active Texas cybersecurity compliance requirements for staff training, with no public evidence of certification completion or credential and password management deployment. Combined with strategic IT modernization initiatives, gaps in endpoint management and identity security present measurable operational and compliance risk across the district.
The opportunity
The 2026–2027 budget reflects approved increases of over $1M across data processing and security monitoring line items, signaling a near-term investment window. Incoming leadership and budget-approved modernization initiatives create strong conditions for advancing cybersecurity posture and meeting state compliance requirements this fiscal cycle.

Student Transportation · Fleet Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified critical gaps in telematics visibility, collision-fault documentation, and fleet insurance and workers' compensation cost exposure. A recent bus collision has elevated urgency for improved incident reconstruction capabilities, increasing operational and financial risk to the district.
The opportunity
Bond-funded safety initiatives and new bus additions confirm available funding pathways within the current planning cycle. Incoming transportation leadership creates a timely opening to evaluate and consolidate fragmented fleet systems, reducing liability and improving student safety outcomes.
