Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Modernization
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district lacks a confirmed Emergency Operations Plan, has no dedicated mass-notification system, and relies on a county-level service for critical alerts. Active compliance mandates for EOP development and safety audits elevate operational and liability risk for students and staff.
The opportunity
A $150,000 school safety grant provides an immediate, dedicated funding pathway aligned with the district's active emergency preparedness initiative. Addressing these gaps now satisfies compliance requirements, strengthens crisis response, and advances the district's Guardian Plan safety priorities.

Cybersecurity · K-12 IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district faces active cybersecurity compliance mandates — including policy requirements and the need for a dedicated security coordinator — alongside gaps in endpoint management, security assessments, and software deployment. With a new Director of Information Technology and Security onboarding in mid-2026, the district is actively building its security posture but lacks foundational tools to meet state and operational standards.
The opportunity
The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative grant provides a direct, near-term funding path for endpoint management, assessments, and software deployment. Acting within the current budget cycle aligns investment with the incoming IT leadership's evaluation window and reduces compliance and operational risk before the next academic year.

Web Accessibility · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified ADA Title II compliance gaps across its public-facing digital portals and website, with a fragmented digital presence that does not currently meet accessibility standards. The April 26, 2027 federal deadline creates a firm regulatory timeline, exposing the district to legal and reputational risk without immediate action.
The opportunity
The active 2026–2027 budget cycle and a recent technology bid approval signal a favorable procurement environment aligned with the compliance deadline. Addressing accessibility gaps now supports equitable public access, reduces legal exposure, and positions the district to leverage available funding pathways before the fiscal window closes.

Fleet & Transportation · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified three critical transportation safety gaps: student accountability failures tied to a prior incident, pickup/drop-off vehicle conflicts, and the absence of driver behavior monitoring and incident evidence capture. Current bus tracking tools do not address these risks, creating measurable operational and liability exposure.
The opportunity
The district's active Fleet & Transportation initiative and 2025 bond Phase II capital program provide a near-term funding pathway to close these gaps. Acting within the current budget cycle reduces liability risk, strengthens student safety outcomes, and aligns with the district's existing technology investment direction.
