All property shall be acquired using proper purchasing procedures either through the District or internal funds, or through donations from outside sources. All property, however, including vehicular equipment shall be in the name of the Board and under its full control. All property acquired from sources other than District funds, such as PTA and booster organization donations and grants, shall be reported promptly, in accordance with procedures established for property accountability.

Removal of Property

1. Property shall not be taken from any school building or premises for private use. Property may be loaned to employees, outside agencies, or organizations only with the prior written approval of the principal or department head and appropriate documentation provided to Accounting Services.

2. Major property items shall not be exchanged between schools or departments except upon the written approval of division and/or department heads affected and appropriate documentation provided to Accounting Services for transfer of property.

3. No District property should be trashed or disposed of without approval of the Principal and/or Department Head and appropriate documentation of the disposal. All property must by transferred to Surplus for disposal. 

Disposal, Sale, or Exchange

Property which is not suitable for School District use shall be disposed of in accordance with State statutes and District Property Accounting procedures.
