Priority Area 6 - Operations

DAYS 31-60: SUSTAINED PRIORITIES

Operational Efficiency

• Evaluate budget alignment to priorities, including grant funding sustainability.
• Review procurement, facilities, technology, and transportation systems for equity and effectiveness.
• Evaluate the use of AI technology within PGCPS to support efficiency and effectiveness.
• Establish a process to determine ROI on expenditures.
• Determine whether PGCPS has the capacity to evaluate ROI on strategic expenditures or whether this process needs to be outsourced.
• Host community-facing budget town halls to enhance transparency.

Facilities and Operations Readiness

• Assign facilities teams to verify HVAC, plumbing, electrical systems, and safety compliance.
• Prioritize deferred maintenance projects, especially in high-needs communities.
• Coordinate with custodial supervisors for a staggered deep-cleaning schedule across all buildings.
• Audit supplies of hygiene products (soap, sanitizers, PPE) in anticipation of ongoing public health needs.
• Confirm delivery and distribution of textbooks, digital devices, science lab materials, and curriculum supplements.
• Establish a “materials arrival and inspection” system to avoid delays in instructional readiness.
• Prioritize high-poverty schools for early deliveries and additional resources.
