Let’s Hear It for Rebates!


This month, the AISD received rebate checks of $170,291 from American Express as part of the Corporate Purchasing Card Program and $81,990 from Office Depot under a strategic sourcing agreement. The purchasing card and strategic sourcing initiatives were initiated by the district’s Contract and Procurement staff, pictured here. 
Kudos to Director Jim Sessions (at right) and his staff, from left to right: Diane Carrizales, Amelia Gomez, Melissa Bishop, Jacob Reach, and Karen Mikalajuna. In addition to these rebates, both corporate partners have provided school administrators with an effective expense management program for thousands of small dollar value purchases.
