  • Vendors without an approved P.O. will not be Paid
    Various administrative departments and schools within the District have received goods and/or services from vendors without an approved Purchase Order. This is not in accordance with CPS Procurement Policy.

    Per Board Rule 7-13(b), “Except as otherwise provided in these Rules, all purchases for any Dollar amount require a Purchase Order obtained consistent with these Rules and applicable law. The Purchase Order must be issued prior to order or receipt of goods or services.”

    Effective Immediately, CPS will not pay vendors who start work or provide goods without authorization (a signed contract and /or an approved purchase order).

  • Full School Day
    Beginning next school year, the district will be implementing a longer school day and year. Specifically, we plan on providing all of our students with a 7.5 hour school day as well as a 180 school day year. To ensure that a transition to the Full School Day is a success, your support and partnership is absolutely critical. CPS invites you to the first in a series of community meetings around the Full School Day.
