authorized purchase order. Purchase orders must be signed by the superintendent of school or
by the business manager if the purchase is to come from tax funds. Purchase against the middle
school activity account must be signed by the sponsor and the principal. In past years, teachers
have sometimes purchased supplies without approval and purchase order; you buy at your own
