What We Handle

Vendor Payments

Payment of invoices for goods and services provided to the district under an approved purchase order.

Employee Reimbursements

Reimbursement of approved out-of-pocket expenses for district staff.

Purchase Orders

Processing purchase orders approved by the Board of Education so schools and departments can buy what they need.

How Purchasing Works

Noble Public Schools requires that the Board of Education approve all purchase orders before payment. If you're a vendor, please make sure an approved purchase order is in place before providing goods or services.

  1. Purchase Order Requested

    A school site or department submits a purchase requisition for the goods or services needed.

  2. Board Approval

    The Board of Education reviews and approves purchase orders. An approved PO is the district's authorization to buy.

  3. Goods or Services Delivered

    The vendor provides the goods or services listed on the approved purchase order.

  4. Invoice & Payment

    The vendor sends the invoice to Accounts Payable, referencing the PO number. Payment is processed once the invoice is matched to its approved purchase order.

Please note: any purchase made without a Purchase Order (PO) may result in a denial of payment.
