RELATIONS WITH VENDORS

The Board of Education wishes to maintain good working relations with vendors who supply materials and services to the school system. Constructive efforts by the administration to seek the advice and counsel of vendors about how to improve such relationships are encouraged.

In the schools, vendors shall report to the school office and shall be seen by appointment only. Vendors who call upon a school shall be governed by policy #1250. Teachers or supervisors of instruction who have invited vendors to call shall notify the principal's office in advance so that proper courtesies may be extended.

No agents, canvassers, or vendors shall have access to teachers during their classes. No business concern which solicits or gains business through the school system shall use school facilities for this purpose.

All vendors shall supply assurances that they do not practice discrimination as described in the administrative code. All vendors shall be informed that harassment of any kind of district pupils or employees by their representatives is prohibited.
