From the meeting
The district is updating its federal procurement rules for purchases made with grant funds. The memo ties the rule change to federal awards and states that districts must use the correct method based on prior spending, with quotes, sealed bids, or competitive proposals as thresholds are met. This matters for any ESSER, E-Rate, Title I, IDEA, or other federal-funded purchase that may come forward under the revised limits.
The superintendent is the purchasing agent under the policy.
