FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Disposal of Obsolete, Unneeded or Economically Irreparable Materials
The Board of Directors authorizes the superintendent or designee to determine whether any
text, other books, equipment, instructional materials or relocateable facilities re (1) obsolete,
(2) in excess of current and/or projected district needs, or (3) not economically feasible to
maintain or repair. The Board further authorizes the superintendent to develop and carry out
procedures in accordance with state law for the disposal through sale, auction, donation or
scrapping when such items are declared surplus. Students wishing to purchase texts shall
have priority to purchase such texts in accordance with the depreciation scale determining
the value of texts. The sale of real property such as land and permanent buildings shall be
excluded from this policy and will be disposed of according to RCW 28A.335.090.
