Pre-RFPInformation TechnologyDetected May 27, 2026

Commissioner Stramandinoli reported ongoing camera issues on mobile devices and that he has reached out to Hello Alert to fix the firewall, and is awaiting resolution. This suggests the district is experiencing network security or routing issues affecting video or camera usage on its mobile endpoints, potentially impacting operational communications. At this stage, Hello Alert appears to be the current IT or network security provider, but the unresolved issue may open the door for evaluation of broader IT support, network monitoring, and cybersecurity services if problems persist.IT vendors with public safety experience can position themselves to review the network architecture, harden firewall policies, and ensure reliable mobile access to video and camera applications critical to fire operations.

This IT issue is mentioned alongside website training and record‑retention scanning backlog, hinting at broader technology modernization needs.

The remote instruction plan says grades K-2 will use Seesaw and grades 3-12 will use Google Classroom. It also describes device checkout, internet access support, and offline alternatives for students who cannot use digital tools. Those platforms are already selected and in use, so this is follow-on implementation and support intelligence rather than an open bid. It ties directly to emergency closure continuity.
