Emergency Operations Plan & Mass Notification Readiness
Emergency Management · Student Safety
High Priority
About this project
This school lacks a publicly available Emergency Operations Plan, a mass notification platform, and a designated emergency management coordinator — gaps that directly conflict with Michigan statute MCL 380.1308b mandating EOPs and drill schedules. A recent regional severe weather event has heightened urgency, placing students, staff, and the district at measurable compliance and safety risk.
The opportunity
Two identified grant opportunities align directly with emergency alert and communication system investments, and an upcoming budget hearing creates a near-term funding window. Addressing these gaps now supports statutory compliance, strengthens campus safety outcomes, and positions the district to act during a leadership transition favorable to new initiatives.
Web Accessibility & WCAG 2.1 Compliance Remediation
Digital Equity · Regulatory Compliance
High Priority
About this project
The school's public-facing website does not meet WCAG 2.1 federal and state accessibility standards, creating legal exposure and inequitable access for students, families, and staff with disabilities. Unresolved compliance gaps risk civil rights complaints and undermine the institution's obligation to serve all stakeholders equitably.
The opportunity
An upcoming budget hearing creates a near-term window to prioritize and fund accessibility remediation before the next fiscal cycle. Acting now reduces legal liability, advances digital equity mandates, and positions the district to align spending with compliance requirements already under scrutiny.

Emergency Management · School Safety
High Priority
About this project
The school lacks an integrated emergency management system, with no unified EOP, no mass notification platform, and no dedicated EM coordinator — creating compliance gaps under Michigan statute MCL 380.1308b and elevating risk during drills and real incidents.
The opportunity
Grant programs such as SVPP and BRIC offer eligible funding for emergency alert and communication systems, and an upcoming budget cycle creates a near-term window to act. Consolidating workflows now reduces compliance exposure and strengthens safety outcomes for students and staff.
