Emergency Operations Plan & Crisis Management Readiness
Emergency Management · Public Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has documented crisis management failures—including an HVAC emergency and communication breakdowns during lockdowns—with an after-action review explicitly calling for a formal crisis management plan. The multihazard EOP review cycle deadline of September 30, 2026 elevates compliance and operational risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
The September 2026 EOP deadline creates immediate urgency, and a proposed bond package and VATRE represent potential funding pathways if approved. Incoming district leadership adds momentum for addressing documented preparedness gaps before the compliance window closes.
Web Accessibility & WCAG Compliance Remediation
Web Accessibility · ADA Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district must achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance by April 26, 2027, driven by its scale of over 44,000 students and public-facing digital content obligations. Current gaps in document and web accessibility expose the district to legal liability and create inequitable access for students and staff.
The opportunity
The April 2027 deadline creates a defined, near-term window for procurement and implementation. IMTA grant funding offers an indirect path to offset costs, and a proposed bond package includes ADA access provisions that may further support this effort—making action during the current fiscal cycle essential.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district is navigating cybersecurity leadership transitions while managing ongoing compliance mandates and a data privacy commitment that demands robust credential and endpoint controls. With annual IT and software spend exceeding $9.6 million, gaps in identity and access management present measurable operational and compliance risk.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative offers a rolling, no-cost funding path directly aligned with this project, and Bond 2020 Proposition B for IT modernization is already funded. Acting within the current fiscal cycle allows the district to close credential management gaps while maximizing available grant coverage.

Student Safety · Fleet Management
High Priority
About this project
A 2025 wrong-bus incident and a documented student assignment and route-control failure expose critical gaps in trip-level monitoring and dispatch oversight. While foundational safety technology exists, the district lacks real-time bus tracking and route control capabilities needed to prevent recurrence and protect students.
The opportunity
Active fleet services procurement creates a near-term window to close safety gaps, with the district's EV transition and real-time tracking initiatives providing strong strategic alignment. Cooperative purchasing agreements already in use by the district offer a streamlined, cost-effective procurement path eligible for modernization funding.
