Board approves secondary health curriculum purchase totaling $244,255
Summary
The board amended and approved a $244,255 not-to-exceed contract for middle- and high-school health materials, purchasing some piloted materials directly from publishers and the remainder through Northwest Textbook Depository.
The Gresham-Barlow School District board approved an amended purchase on May 21 for secondary health curriculum materials totaling a not-to-exceed amount of $244,255. The motion (Motion 98) authorized purchase through Northwest Textbook Depository and acquisition of currently piloted materials directly from publishers.
Dr. Collins explained that publishers would not ship through the district's preferred vendor without extra costs, so the procurement approach was adjusted to buy piloted items from publishers directly while maintaining the same total dollar amount. The motion, made by Holly Riegelmann and seconded by David Ligatich, carried unanimously. The selected materials are G-W Publishers Comprehensive Health Skills for middle school and Human Kinetics Live Well Comprehensive High School Health curriculum.
