Annual Contracts over $25,000

Public Reporting on District Contracts

Below is an excerpt from the Guidance Reporting Requirements on Contracts Exceeding $25,000:

The School Code was amended in January of 2008 to add requirements concerning reports on contracts exceeding $25,000, beginning with FY 08, in conjunction with submission of the Annual Statement of Affairs (105 ILCS 5/10-17).

The new provisions, effective for FY 08, include the following requirements:

A school board must list on the district’s Internet website, if any, all contracts over $25,000 and any contract that the school board enters into with an exclusive bargaining representative.

Compliance with this requirement can be achieved if all contracts exceeding $25,000, including personal service contracts and agreements with an exclusive bargaining representative, are posted in a list on the district website. Subsequent to the initial posting, as such contracts exceeding $25,000 are awarded by the school board, they should be added to the list.

Contracts to be excluded from the report submitted to ISBE would include: (1) collective bargaining agreements with district employee groups; and (2) personal services contracts with individual district employees.

Listed below are the vendors and corresponding contract amounts for all contracts that are valued at over $25,000 and that have been awarded during the Fiscal Year 2023.
