Hey guys
So long story short, a teacher from my old middle school emailed me inquiring about a show for a school assembly. She gave me all the details-date, time, audience, etc. I gave her my price and she said Great and then asked me if I had contacted the district office and if I hadn't I should call them to ask them what I need to do to do a show for MBMS (the school.) I've never encountered a situation like this so admittedly I don't know what to do. Is this normal? Shouldn't the client be making these arrangements? Thanks guys. |

I can only speak from my experiences here.
Lots of schools require background checks, vendor registration and so forth. Most of the teachers know that there are hoops involved, but most of them don't know how and in what order you have to jump through them. By talking to the district office, you'll find out exactly what is needed to insure their ability to pay you. In a very recent instance, the district was able to save me a lot of time, effort and paperwork by knowing how I was classified in order for them to do business with them. It's not odd, it's really pretty common, at least in this neck of the woods. Hope that helps! Good luck. |

I know in this area they usually ask if you do have some liability coverage.
