Budget PlanningSupplies & MaterialsDetected Jun 15, 2026

Eastern Lancaster County SD’s 2026-2027 budget earmarks large amounts under Instruction for purchased professional and technical services and supplies across regular (1100), special (1200), vocational (1300), and other instructional programs (1400). For example, regular programs include 1107405 in purchased professional/technical services and 1501895 in supplies, while special programs include 3499655 in professional/technical services and 59784 in supplies.These lines represent funding for curriculum materials, instructional software, contracted instructional supports, therapy providers, and specialized services for students with disabilities. Because the budget does not name specific products or contracts, vendors in curriculum, EdTech, and special education services can approach program leaders to match offerings to these funded categories and help the district optimize impact and compliance with Title I and IDEA-related services.

Federal revenues include Title I, II, III, and IV, which often fund instructional programs and related contracts; those grants feed into these instructional lines.
