Every school has a repair and replacement budget based on classroom count. We love principal approval to spend out of this fund. Once this district allocation is spent, you’ll need to use your building dollars to repair and/or replace.
Repair defined: Faulty and failing devices outside of warranty can be repaired through the dollars in this budget if you wish. Some repairs are not covered by warranty (eg: broken screens).
Replacement defined: When it’s more expensive to buy a new device than repair it you can replace it with these funds. You are encouraged to use these funds to replace consumbles for your technology too. This might include projector bulbs.
Refresh defined: The district has a separate fund to refresh the technology in your buildings. This includes teacher and other devices in your building. Our refresh cycle does not currently include SMARTboards, phones, or printers, those will need to come out of your repair and replacement budgets.
We’re here to help! When you want to order replacement equipment or accoutrements, please follow these directions.
1) Get approval from the building administrator for the order and estimated cost.
2) Send a message to Beth <<bbuehler@fgsd.k12.or.us>>, Enrique <<epinon@fgsd.k12.or.us>>, and Corin <<crichards@fgsd.k12.or.us>> stating what you'd like to purchase. If you are not the building administrator, please include them in the message.
3) We'll clarify that the building admin has approved the purchase and that they'd like to use the repair and replacement budget. If you'd like to use a different budget string, you're welcome to do so, we'll simply need to know what that is.
4) Beth will order the item(s).
