Expansion opportunities Recent initiatives include performance academy sports program and a sizable grant for the Tiny Home Project, plus upcoming leadership changes with a new superintendent.

This suggests receptivity to educational tech, data-informed learning, student information systems enhancements, and to partnerships offering secure, scalable edtech solutions.
