Bid specs and any addendum will be posted on this site but only registered bidders will receive formal communications from the district. Failure to register as a bidder will relieve the Buffalo City School District of the responsibility to notify any potential bidders. The failure to register as a formal bidder means that the bidder has their own full responsibility to obtain all relevant specifications and addendum. Thank you.
