Current Vendors Policy

Current Vendors PO / Payment Policy

Updated: 7/15/2024

Parent / ES / vendor understands that all services by Independent Contractors are voluntary, and the services or activities conducted at the facilities owned by and/or at a designated location CWCS has no control. Parent / Guardian should remain with their child(ren) and the parent assumes responsibility for their child(ren) to participate in vendor services.  A business may require the parent to sign their own enrollment agreement that is completely independent from the CWCS.

No vendor should provide any services or product materials to any Connecting Waters Charter Schools student or family without receiving a purchase order (PO) from the school’s Business Services Department. Connecting Waters Charter Schools is only obligated to pay for the contracted services or product materials after a purchase order has been processed and the services are rendered in full or product material(s) shipped to designated school site, Education Specialist, or student/family listed on the order. If a purchase order is misplaced or the vendor cannot confirm it was previously received, the vendor must contact the Business Services Department at 209-874-1119 option 8 or email at [email protected] before providing services or products.

When a service PO is received from the school and all lessons listed are completed, the vendor has the option to (1) email, fax, or mail an invoice to the school’s Accounts Payable Department (with the PO number(s) referenced on the invoice) or (2)

electronically submit the PO/Invoice through the Online Purchasing System  (OPS). Please note: vendor login credentials to access the applicable school’s network are provided by the Business Services Department. 

When a product PO is received from the school and the products listed on the PO are shipped to the school’s site or Education Specialist listed on the order, the vendor can email, fax, or mail an invoice to the Accounts Payable Department (with the PO number(s) referenced on the invoice). Invoice payment will be processed upon confirmation from CWCS staff the material(s) are received.

Connecting Waters Charter Schools is only responsible for payment after a purchase order has been received by the vendor, services have been rendered or product material(s) shipped have been received by CWCS, and the invoice submitted matches the school’s PO.  CWCS will not pay for any services or product material(s) without a purchase order dated on or before the service’s start or shipment. CWCS only pays for services or product material(s) that are explicitly stated on the purchase order. For example, if a vendor allows a student to complete services in September and October, but the purchase order received states the month of September, then Connecting Waters Charter Schools will not pay for the October services. The vendor will need to get payment from the student’s parent or guardian. Vendor is responsible for communicating the school's contract agreement to all instructor(s) and not to provide services without having all applicable month(s) purchase orders.

The vendor is responsible for obtaining state and federal level clearances for all instructors in contact (in-person and/or online) with CWCS students by performing a CA Department of Justice (DOJ) Live Scan criminal background check. The vendor must also provide negative TB clearances for all instructors meeting with CWCS students in-person. These instructor clearances must be provided to the Business Services Department (Vendor Relations) before allowing new instructor(s) to provide services to CWCS students. Failure to notify the Business Services Department of any new instructor(s) and meeting with CWCS students without full clearances could result in suspension of PO services and/or termination of the CWCS vendor contract agreement.
