Key Takeaways

  • •The board can hire outside experts if the district's workers can't do the job well.
  • •This is only for special work that the district's own team isn't good at.
  • •The board gets to decide when to hire outside help.

Example

The school district needs a new computer system, but none of the school's workers know how to set it up.

The board can hire a computer expert from outside to do the job because the school's own team can't handle it.
