Multi-Hazard Emergency Operations Plan Development
Emergency Management · School Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district faces an active Texas multi-hazard EOP compliance mandate alongside critical preparedness gaps: unreliable family communication, an unconfirmed mass-notification platform, and absent HSEEP-style exercise documentation. The concurrent launch of a new police department elevates the urgency for a formalized, district-wide emergency management framework.
The opportunity
Recent leadership transitions in Safety and Security, combined with a board-approved $152.2M balanced budget that includes dedicated public safety and emergency communications funding, create a well-timed entry point. Addressing EOP gaps now reduces compliance and operational risk while aligning with active budget allocations and the district's current strategic cycle.
Mass Notification & Emergency Communication Modernization
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a confirmed mass-notification platform and has documented failures in family communication during emergencies, creating a critical gap in crisis response. With a Texas multi-hazard EOP compliance mandate active and new safety leadership in place, the operational and regulatory risk is immediate.
The opportunity
Bond-funded investments in emergency communications, a greenfield platform environment, and new safety leadership create a timely window to act. This project aligns with EOP compliance requirements and is eligible for cooperative procurement, supporting efficient use of an already-approved budget.
Web Accessibility & Digital Document Compliance
Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
The district faces an active WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance mandate with a firm deadline and no current solution in place for document accessibility. Without intervention, the district risks non-compliance, inequitable access to digital content, and exposure to legal and reputational harm.
The opportunity
A hard compliance deadline, combined with an approved $871K instructional technology allocation and the district's Elevate 2030 digital service initiative, creates immediate justification and confirmed budget for action. Addressing this now reduces compliance risk and advances equitable access to public information for all students and community members.
Fleet Safety Monitoring & Transportation Operations Modernization
Fleet Management · Student Transportation Safety
High Priority
About this project
Two recent special-education bus collisions have elevated safety and liability risk, creating urgent demand for real-time fleet monitoring and operational oversight. A legacy transportation tracking system is due for replacement, and a $7.43M bond-funded transportation center expansion is actively underway.
The opportunity
Bond funding is already approved and infrastructure investment is in motion, making this an ideal window to modernize fleet safety systems alongside the new transportation center. Addressing monitoring gaps now reduces incident risk, supports student safety mandates, and aligns with the district's active fleet-operations modernization initiative.
Districtwide Endpoint Modernization and Lifecycle Management
IT Modernization · EdTech Infrastructure
High Priority
About this project
The district is executing a districtwide instructional technology modernization, including an endpoint and device refresh across a managed estate of Chromebooks and laptops. Without unified lifecycle management and security oversight tooling, aging devices create operational gaps, security exposure, and inconsistent instructional continuity for students and staff.
The opportunity
A dedicated $871K instructional technology budget allocation is active, and new technology leadership signals openness to updated approaches. Engaging now aligns with current fiscal-year planning and supports responsible stewardship of public funds across a $12M+ annual IT spend.
Cybersecurity Compliance & Credential Management Modernization
Cybersecurity Compliance · Identity & Credential Security
High Priority
About this project
The district faces an active cybersecurity incident reporting mandate while managing a large endpoint estate with no identified credential or identity management solution in place. This greenfield gap elevates exposure to credential-based threats and undermines incident response readiness across staff and student systems.
The opportunity
New technology leadership and an active compliance mandate create immediate urgency, while the district's robust $152M budget and a conditional public safety grant support near-term investment. Purchases structured within informal procurement thresholds can accelerate deployment without a formal bid process.
