Web Accessibility & Digital Portal Compliance
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district is under an active OCR investigation for website accessibility violations under Section 504 and Title II, with a 60-day cure period creating immediate legal and compliance exposure. Unresolved WCAG and ADA obligations place the district at risk of continued findings, reputational harm, and inequitable access for students and families.
The opportunity
The active cure period establishes a hard near-term deadline, making this a top strategic priority with direct procurement urgency. Cooperative purchasing vehicles are available to accelerate compliant procurement, and the initiative aligns with current FY planning and dedicated technology funding.

IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
A November 2023 cybersecurity incident revealed critical gaps in endpoint management and access controls, elevating risk to district data and operations. A formal IT & Cybersecurity Modernization initiative is now underway for FY 2026–27, led by a newly appointed Technology Director.
The opportunity
A dedicated Technology Millage provides confirmed FY 2026–27 funding, and a Technology Infrastructure Update approved to begin July 2026 creates a clear procurement window. Multiple grant programs with July 2026 deadlines offer additional funding paths, making this an optimal moment to close security gaps and reduce operational risk.
Strengthen Emergency Preparedness and Mass Notification
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a designated Emergency Management Coordinator and a formal mass notification system, creating critical gaps in crisis communication and response. Although the Emergency Operations Plan is current, these absences leave students, staff, and families vulnerable during emergencies.
The opportunity
Multiple grant opportunities with July 2026 deadlines—alongside $300M in increased state school safety and mental health funding—provide near-term, accessible funding pathways. Acting within this fiscal window closes preparedness gaps, strengthens compliance posture, and directly improves safety outcomes for the school community.
Fleet Telematics & Transportation Safety Planning
Fleet Safety · Student Transportation
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified a gap in fleet telematics as a documented safety risk, with no current system to monitor vehicle operations or driver behavior. No active incidents or immediate compliance mandates are driving urgency at this time, keeping operational risk at a low but present baseline.
The opportunity
With a dedicated Technology Millage funding technology investments in FY 2026–27 and increased state funding for school safety, the upcoming fiscal cycle presents a natural window to address fleet visibility before a triggering incident elevates risk. Proactive planning now positions the district to act quickly when leadership prioritizes transportation safety.
