§ 1269 County School Maintenance Costs

The county school superintendent can hire extra workers to do maintenance and repair jobs, and can bill school districts for the actual cost plus up to an extra 10% for things like supervision, transport, and equipment.

Key Takeaways

  • •The superintendent may bring in extra help for school repair and maintenance work.
  • •Schools are charged the real cost of labor and supplies.
  • •An additional charge is allowed for supervision, transport, equipment, etc., but it can’t be more than 10% of the labor‑and‑supplies cost.

Example

A high school needs its heating system fixed. The superintendent hires a crew, buys the needed parts, and drives the crew and supplies to the school.

The school district pays for the price of the parts and labor, and then adds a little extra—no more than 10% of that price—to cover the superintendent’s supervision, the truck rides, and the tools used.
