According to Patricia Brooke-Fruendt of the Manhattan-Ogden Unified School District in Manhattan, Kan., “We saw the incredible value of working with a trusted partner like School Specialty as we made decisions on new furnishings. The entire process, including strict contract compliance, was made easy working through AEPA and in partnership with School Specialty. All options were readily at our disposal.”
