Purchasing
-
The mission of the Purchasing Department is to procure quality equipment, supplies, and services in a cost-effective, professional, and ethical manner to support student success.
The Purchasing Departments primary role is to facilitate the purchasing process obtaining the necessary equipment, materials, and services our customers require to support their instructional or administrative programs. Our department strives to maximize district resources by obtaining competitive quotes or bids.

The property records division assigns property records numbers to all equipment valued at over $1,000.00. The school or department is the custodian of this property and it is inventoried yearly by a purchasing department staff member.
