EOP Modernization and Mass Notification Strengthening
Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The institution faces material emergency preparedness gaps, including no dedicated Emergency Management Coordinator, limited public EOP documentation, and no identified failover for its mass notification system. Despite recent EOP approvals under Texas Education Code Chapter 37, planning, coordination, and notification robustness remain compliance and safety risks.
The opportunity
The recently adopted 2026–2027 budget and Safe Cycle II grant funding create an immediate purchasing window aligned with active EOP modernization and multichannel notification initiatives. Acting now closes compliance gaps, strengthens campus safety outcomes, and leverages available security-technology funding before the window narrows.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity & Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The institution operates under an active WCAG 2.0 Level AA compliance mandate through its Website & Digital Services initiative, with a firm WCAG 2.1 upgrade deadline of April 2027. Failure to meet these standards exposes the institution to legal liability and creates inequitable access to digital services for students and the public.
The opportunity
The recently approved 2026–2027 budget provides confirmed funding and financial flexibility, making near-term action highly viable. Advancing this initiative now ensures compliance ahead of the April 2027 deadline while improving equitable digital access for all constituents.

Fleet Management · Student Transportation Safety
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified passenger-restraint exposure and a gap in driver-behavior documentation across its transportation operations, creating liability and compliance risk. Active fleet expansion through bus acquisition increases the urgency of implementing telematics and dash camera solutions to meet safety mandates.
The opportunity
The 2026–2027 budget has been adopted with a positive General Fund balance, creating an immediate purchasing window, and cooperative procurement vehicles are likely available to streamline acquisition. Addressing this now reduces operational liability, strengthens student safety outcomes, and aligns with the district's active Fleet & Transportation strategic initiative.

Campus Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
Safe Cycle II grant funds are actively allocated for campus camera upgrades, representing a live, in-progress physical security initiative. This effort supports broader emergency management mandates under Texas Education Code Chapter 37 and directly impacts student and staff safety across campus facilities.
The opportunity
Grant funding is already in place and driving active purchasing decisions, with the recently approved 2026–2027 budget and a positive General Fund balance providing additional capacity for scope expansion. Acting within the current fiscal cycle ensures continuity of safety improvements and maximizes the impact of allocated public funds.
Safe Cycle II
Discuss this project →Credential and Endpoint Security Modernization
IT Modernization · Cybersecurity
High Priority
About this project
The district's active IT & Cybersecurity Modernization initiative lacks a dedicated password management solution, leaving credential security gaps despite existing controls and reliance on SSO-based logins. No confirmed endpoint or IT management platform is in place, increasing operational and security risk across staff and student systems.
The opportunity
The recently adopted 2026–2027 budget and a positive General Fund balance create an immediate purchasing window, while incoming leadership presents a timely opportunity to advance foundational cybersecurity improvements. Cooperative procurement vehicles are available to streamline acquisition and reduce administrative burden.
