AACPS comprises 128 schools and more than 84,000 students. The operating budget for FY 2022 is $1.37 billion. The Board of Education and the Superintendent have authorized the Supervisor of Purchasing to award contracts for services, construction, maintenance, commodities and equipment, leases, and architectural/engineering services. The Board must approve most contracts exceeding $100,000. This flexibility allows us to quickly respond to the needs of our schools. All qualified businesses are encouraged to bid on AACPS contracts.
