Department chairs complete and submit a request for equipment in priority order in the spring to the CTE Office. Senior Administrators review the request, and the department chairs are notified of the status of their requests.
Equipment purchased with CTE funds cannot be transferred to non-CTE programs or classes. Contact the CTE Office for disposition/reassignment of CTE equipment.

Furniture
CTE funds cannot be used to purchase furniture.
Print Shop Orders
When ordering printing services from the WCPSS Print Shop, follow the Print Shop Order procedures.
Warehouse Orders
Please refer to the WCPSS Warehouse Catalog when ordering instructional supplies. Use the Warehouse Requisition form (Excel 19 KB) to place a warehouse order. Attach that order form to a CTE Request for Prior Approval Form and send them to the CTE Director's secretary.
This catalog should be referenced first before using other vendors. Do not request commonly used teaching materials (chalk, paper, pens, markers, etc.) to be paid from your CTE funds. Those items should be purchased with per-pupil funds allocated at your school.
