505: What can AASBO do for You as a Leader in
Nutrition Services?
A roundtable discussion to explore training
and educational opportunities with AASBO for
FY 2014. There is a wealth of knowledge and

with us!
Presented by: Jim Hemmen, Roosevelt School

506: Sole Source and Emergency Procurement!
Crossing the T’s and dotting the I’s.
What is sole source procurement? What is
emergency procurement? What are the
requirements for each? Who holds the author-
ity to make this determination? Learn how to
handle sole source and emergency procure-
ments for your District and what documentation
is needed to prepare you for a successful audit!
Presented by: Gary Barkman, Mesa
Public Schools, and Bill Munch, Valley Schools
Management Group
507: Polish the Training
Now that we have all had the basics how do
we polish it? By using MBWA (Management
by walking around) and safety audits we can
insure the training we have presented in the
classroom stuck and if the employees retained
and are using the new found knowledge to their
benefit. It’s not meant to be a “got ya” moment
but a teachable moment when employees are
observed using the proper methods and safety
procedures.
Presented by: John Muir and Joe Baca, Scotts-
dale Unified School District
508: Post-Employment 403b Special Pay
A post-employment 403(b) Special Pay plan is
a benefit districts can add to their 403(b) plan
to handle post-employment compensation in a
tax advantaged manner. Contributions to the
403(b) Special Pay are not subject to Social
Security or Medicare taxes- a savings for both
the employee and the district. Federal and state
taxes are deferred until distribution. Two school
districts worked closely on an RFP that allows
member school districts to participate in a
Post-Employment 403(b) Special Pay plan
without individually bidding these services. We
will discuss plan specifics and steps for districts
to add 403(b) Special Pay to their 403(b) plan.
Presented by: Brad Nassif, Glendale Union High
School District
509: Marketing - It Does a School Good!
Marketing - who needs it? We all do! We all have
a need to tell our story. What are the good things
happening in your district. Why should the
general public pay attention? Learn from those
who have successfully communicated their
successes to the community. Leave with ide-
as for messages you need to convey to your
neighbors.
Presented by: Presenter to be determined.
