What this document actually says
This administrative regulation, last reviewed in September 2019, establishes how Reed Union School District tracks and manages its property and equipment. The district must maintain an inventory of all items valued over $500, and items purchased with federal funds costing $5,000 or more. For each item, the district records details including description, serial number, cost, purchase date, location, and disposal information. Federal-funded items require additional tracking of funding source and condition. The district must conduct a physical inventory count at least every two years to verify records match actual property. Each school maintains its own inventory copy and sends one to the district office for centralized record-keeping. This ensures proper control and conservation of taxpayer-funded district assets.
What this means for your family
This policy ensures the district properly manages and protects equipment and property purchased with tax dollars and federal funds. It doesn't directly affect day-to-day classroom instruction, but good inventory management helps prevent loss or theft of valuable educational resources and equipment that students use. Proper tracking also ensures the district remains eligible for federal funding and maintains financial accountability to the community.
