Emergency Operations Plan and Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a publicly posted Emergency Operations Plan, has no named emergency management coordinator, and lost its primary mass notification vendor, leaving a critical communications gap. Current notification capability relies on a single mobile app without multi-layered redundancy, elevating risk to students, staff, and the broader community.
The opportunity
Active procurement planning and an immediate vendor replacement need create a clear decision window, while COPS TEP and BRIC grant programs offer aligned funding paths with potential for limited local match. Addressing these gaps now strengthens compliance posture, supports community safety, and aligns with bond-funded technology priorities in the current budget cycle.

Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district's primary mass notification vendor has shut down, leaving an urgent operational gap in emergency communications. Notifications are currently fragmented across two platforms, eliminating consolidated, multi-layered alerting capability and elevating both safety and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The vendor shutdown creates an immediate procurement trigger aligned with active IT and emergency management decision windows. Cooperative purchasing vehicles already in use by the district can accelerate acquisition, and applicable grant programs support emergency preparedness investments, reducing local funding burden.
COPS TEP
Discuss this project →Web Accessibility & ADA Document Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has an active OCR investigation history and ongoing WCAG/ADA compliance gaps across web content and documents, creating sustained legal and reputational exposure. Compliance mandates are actively enforced, and unresolved gaps place the district at continued risk of federal civil rights findings.
The opportunity
An existing accessibility compliance program signals leadership commitment, lowering the barrier to further investment. The upcoming budget adoption cycle and August 2026 millage renewal vote create a near-term funding window to advance remediation and reduce compliance risk before the next review period.

Discuss this project →District-Wide Password & Credential Management
Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a formal, district-wide password management program, creating measurable credential security gaps across staff and student systems. An upcoming Acceptable Use Policy update and an active cybersecurity training initiative signal recognized need and readiness to formalize stronger credential hygiene practices.
The opportunity
Strategic alignment between the AUP update and active SOC training creates a timely window to close this gap, with cybersecurity initiatives at this enrollment scale often eligible for state or federal funding support. Acting within the current planning cycle reduces breach risk and strengthens the district's overall security posture.
COPS TEP
Discuss this project →Fleet Safety Visibility and Liability Risk Mitigation
Fleet Safety · Risk Management
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks documented in-vehicle video and telematics systems, leaving fleet operations without incident transparency or defensible records. This gap creates unmitigated liability exposure, as undefended claims cannot be substantiated or refuted without supporting data.
The opportunity
Bond-funded technology priorities and cooperative purchasing agreements offer a streamlined, cost-effective path to procurement within current planning cycles. Addressing this greenfield gap now reduces liability risk and positions the district to protect public assets and taxpayer investments proactively.
