Analytics Enablement The district already uses Piwik PRO Core for analytics, indicating a base for data-informed decision making. There is opportunity to expand analytics capabilities by integrating student outcomes and operations metrics with a privacy-conscious analytics layer. Propose training for data literacy for administrators and teachers to maximize use of data.
Cloud Security Upgrade With Cloudflare and Google Cloud in use, there is an opportunity to optimize cloud security, implement zero-trust access and IAM, and strengthen data backup and disaster recovery. Offer a security package that covers web, network, and email security, plus ongoing monitoring tailored for mid-size districts. This can help reduce risk and improve resilience without disrupting existing workflows.
Funding and Grants The district operates with modest revenue and has some funding, presenting opportunities to identify, pursue, and manage technology grants from state and federal programs. Propose services for grant writing, project scoping, and procurement optimization, including cooperative purchasing with neighboring districts to lower device, software, and service costs.
Regional Collaboration Serving Buena Park, La Palma, and Anaheim, the district is well-positioned to pursue regional collaboration for shared IT services, RFPs, and vendor negotiations. Propose a regional services program that consolidates purchases for SIS, LMS, devices, and network infrastructure to achieve scale and lower total cost of ownership.
IT Modernization The current tech stack includes older components like jQuery UI and Apache, signaling modernization needs. Offer modernization services including web presence updates, migration to modern cloud-based solutions, improved LMS/SIS integrations, device management, and staff training to accelerate adoption and outcomes.
