Purchasing

Bloomington Public Schools will not be held responsible for the payment for any products or services ordered by individuals claiming to be employees of Bloomington Public Schools without a district purchase order.

A purchase order from our district is always required when purchasing. These orders must be approved by the Activities Director.

Process to place an order:

1. Receive and review bids from vendors.

   1. Complete the equipment order form.

2. Email or meet with the Activities Director to review your budget.

3. A purchase order will be issued from the Activities Office Secretary

4. If you are using fundraising or booster club monies to pay for items please have a check written to ISD #271 and that money will be deposited in your supply account before the order is placed.

5. Contact the equipment manager to store new equipment or uniforms.

Prohibited purchasing

1. Booster Clubs should never order equipment directly, all orders must go through the Activities Office.

2. Coaches or advisors should never order equipment and have them delivered to their homes.

3. If orders are placed prior to approval from the Activities Office, the person placing the order is responsible for the bill.
