As a public agency the Board of Education is aware of its responsibility to spend its funds so as to obtain the greatest possible educational value for every dollar spent. Therefore, even though the board will make its purchases locally whenever bids and prices are fully comparable with those of outside bidders, the lowest bid and the lowest price for goods and services will normally be accepted.
