    So wtf are teacher doing with district CC's anyway? I say the Principal should only have one and he would have to approve purchases. Easier to keep on person to the regs than 500

    I'm also curious on that. Could you imagine if a company gave out corporate cards to ALL employees? Maybe the department heads have them and gave them to the teachers to use as needed so they dont have to be bothered? :shrugs:

    Dear god that is crazy. I have 3 different government credit cards I maintain. Two for my unit one for another unit that we support. EVERY SINGLE PURCHASE NEEDS A RECEIPT and has to be accounted for.

    In a lot of institutional settings (colleges, etc.), gift cards are used for disbursing funds for things like survey and research participation, en lieu of cash disbursements. I can't for the life of me figure out why they would need this in a k-12 setting, however. My wife did accounting for this kind of thing at the University of Colorado, and I can tell you they kept a very tight lid on the inventory of gift cards, treating them EXACTLY like cash, and reconciling them by serial number every month.

    Colorado schools are a special brand of stupid. Our teachers are some of the lowest paid in the nation. Our school Superintendents/Managers/Do-Nothings? They are the highest paid in the nation!

    I may pay for them, but they certainly are not MY schools. The teacher's unions still control most of the school boards and are responsible for their poor performance.

    If pay determined performance than we are really underpaying the US military and overpaying our elected representatives.
