The Purchasing Department assists Weld RE-4 schools and departments in acquiring needed goods and services. We serve as good stewards of taxpayer dollars by ensuring district business transactions are compliant, transparent, and fiscally responsible — guided by Board of Education Policies.
We provide guidance on best practices, strengthen supplier relationships, and maximize value for our students through strategic purchasing decisions. Every contract and purchase is awarded based on what delivers the best value for the district — now and in the future.
