Please note that Special Education purchase orders/requisitions for the 2016-17 school year must be received by April 3, 2017 @ 5:00 p.m. Please remember the following:
- Budgets are not carried over from one year to the next.
- Remember to deduct any previously submitted amounts from your Special Education budget (so that you know your balance) before submitting new orders. This includes reimbursements submitted through your school. No orders will be processed that exceed your budgeted allocation.
- Please check with your school secretary to make sure all Special Education reimbursements have been submitted to the Special Education Department by the April 3rd deadline. We have provided each secretary with a spreadsheet of currently recorded purchases/reimbursements for the total special education department at your school up through January 31, 2017.
- When ordering supplies, follow Skyward procedures.
- Be sure to follow the ordering guidelines outlined in the attached budget information page, as you close out your current year budgets.
Staff will be notified of the new budget allocation amount prior to the start of the new school year. Keep in mind that new purchase orders/requisitions will not be processed until mid-July when all of the current year’s budgets have been closed out.
As you close out your budgets for the current school year, please note the following:
- All purchase orders/requisitions should be routed to Debbie Fairbourn in the Special Education Department.
- Use the following codes for purchase orders/requisitions and NPOs submitted through the year.
Coding for Purchase Orders/Requisitions and NPO’s:
FUND | TYPE | LOCATION | PROGRAM | FUNCTION | OBJECT |
10 | E | (School #) | 1295 | 1090 | 610 |

Middle School Payroll Changes – February 2017
Middle schools are now given the option to transmit their payroll electronically to the Payroll Department by scanning documents, with a scanner, and then emailing to the Payroll Department. To protect the employees’ personal information, please use the District encrypted email called MoveIt.
- Time sheets and all payroll documents can be emailed to Carolyn Bevan at carolyn.bevan@jordandistrict.org.
- Payroll will forward time sheets to the applicable departments for review and signatures using MoveIt.
- If Payroll documents were emailed to Payroll, Do Not send original documents as this could cause duplicate pay.
- Employees should use the True Time system, whenever possible, to record their time for any extra jobs, rather than using paper time sheets.
As you are already aware, Payroll has been continually changing and becoming more efficient using technology. Because of these many payroll changes, and to avoid conflicting information between departments and schools regarding payroll, we ask that you please clarify or discuss any payroll issues and/or concerns through the Payroll Department.
We thank you for your continued support, suggestions, and especially for your hard work in helping Payroll run smoothly each month. If you have any questions, please contact Sarah Palmer, Payroll Director, at 801-567-8154 or email sarah.palmer@jordandistrict.org.
