Vendor Relations: DJG

No favoritism shall be extended to any vendor. All employees of the district must exercise sound judgment in avoiding conflicts of interest or the appearance of impropriety in dealing with vendors. Gifts or gratuities of other than nominal value or which might obligate a district employee in any manner shall be politely and firmly refused.

Any vendor or bidder who offers items in excess or in violation of the spirit of this policy may be disqualified indefinitely.

No person officially connected with or employed in the public schools shall be an agent or be in any way pecuniary or beneficially interested in or receive any compensation or reward of any kind from any vendor for the sales of supplies, material, equipment or services to the district.
