Multi-Hazard EOP Review & Emergency Coordination Modernization
Emergency Management · Campus Safety
High Priority
About this project
YES Prep faces a state-mandated Multi-Hazard Emergency Operations Plan review deadline of September 30, 2026, with significant consequences for non-compliance. A district-wide Comprehensive Needs Assessment flagged emergency preparedness and communication coordination as an active gap, and current systems lack unified EOC and dispatch integration.
The opportunity
The September 2026 compliance deadline creates immediate urgency, and leadership transition opens a timely window for modernizing emergency coordination capabilities. Addressing this gap now strengthens campus safety outcomes, reduces institutional liability, and aligns with current fiscal-year planning cycles.

Web Accessibility · Digital Equity
High Priority
About this project
YES Prep's public-facing web properties must achieve WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliance by April 2027, with an active website redesign underway. Failure to meet this mandate creates legal exposure and limits equitable digital access for students, families, and staff across all campuses.
The opportunity
The approaching compliance deadline and concurrent website redesign create an ideal window to embed accessibility into the district's digital infrastructure. The 2026–2029 Interactive Online Learning Grant, Cycle 4, explicitly permits software and SaaS licenses for accessible digital content workflows, offering a direct funding path aligned with the current fiscal cycle.

High Priority
About this project
A recent school bus crash has exposed liability and evidence gaps in the district's fleet safety infrastructure. While bus tracking is in place, the district lacks centralized video, driver behavior monitoring, and incident workflow management across its growing vehicle fleet.
The opportunity
The approved van lease expansion for SY2026-2027 creates a timely, natural entry point for fleet safety technology investment aligned with current budget cycles. Established cooperative purchasing agreements provide a streamlined, compliant procurement path to address safety gaps and reduce district liability.

Cybersecurity · IT Modernization
High Priority
About this project
The district is advancing a cybersecurity modernization initiative, with a campus-level pilot serving as an early proof of concept. Fragmented identity management systems introduce credential and access control risks, and cybersecurity compliance mandates require ongoing attention across a large, multi-campus environment.
The opportunity
A leadership transition creates a timely opening to evaluate and consolidate the district's security posture at scale. The Texas K-12 Cybersecurity Initiative offers a relevant funding pathway, and the district's established cooperative procurement relationships support efficient, compliant acquisition aligned with the upcoming fiscal cycle.

Campus Safety · Emergency Management
High Priority
About this project
The district has identified a gap in its integrated safety and security operational platform, with alarm-monitoring services and Safety & Security team coordination flagged as active priorities. Without a unified system, emergency response coordination across campuses remains fragmented, elevating operational and compliance risk ahead of the required Multi-Hazard EOP review deadline.
The opportunity
This initiative is an active, named district priority with established cooperative procurement vehicles already in place, supporting efficient and compliant contracting. Addressing the infrastructure gap now strengthens EOP compliance readiness, improves districtwide emergency response, and aligns with the upcoming fiscal planning cycle.
