Community Partner / Vendor Information

Service vendors are required to sign a new agreement when they make changes to their Detailed List of Services (DLS). If your vendor is not currently listed, but they were before, they may need to sign their agreement. You may send an inquiry to vendor.support@centralvcs.org to check the status of your vendor.

Your school is accepting applications from vendors who have been suggested by families. Please visit the Community Partner Suggestion form to request that your new service vendor be added. Please note that all vendor submissions are subject to school approval.

DLS stands for Detailed List of Services. This is the list of services a vendor submits to the school for approval. Approved items are listed in the vendor agreement and families are allowed to request payment with state planning amounts for them. All requests for services must match what is listed on the vendor’s DLS. These are visible within the order request page just under vendor tips.

Please do not accept services without a certificate. To request additions to the DLS, watch Requesting Services for An Existing Vendor.

Sibling discounts, or other vendor discounts, can usually be honored even if they are not specifically listed on the DLS. Please ensure you have already confirmed your discount with the vendor prior to placing your order and place a note explaining the price difference when you place the request. Notes for your teacher and ordering processor will assist in speedy processing. Discounts must be confirmed with the vendor to be honored.

The state allocates funding to all public schools. Funds are used for staffing, curriculum, materials, etc. to provide each student with a quality education. Our school's academic model ensures students have what they need for their personalized Educational Plans by using planning amounts that should be divided between three categories with an approximate split of 36% Curriculum, 36% Core Educational Services, and 28% Expanded Learning Opportunities & Supplies.

Product vendors must be listed in the catalog to place an order. If a vendor is not listed, families may request they be added. Please review the video “How To Request A Product Vendor” for instructions. The request will be reviewed for purchasability and a decision will be sent via email to the student’s guardian and teacher.

You can search for vendors by expanding the left menu section "Ordering" and click on "Vendor Catalog." From there, you can choose a value to search by as well as narrow your search results by vendor type (product or service).

Please note limiting your search terms yields the best results. 

If you provide any form of live, interactive instruction, whether in-person or online, you need to be approved before becoming a community partner. If you sell products and materials that do not contain any component of live interaction you do not need to be onboarded as a service vendor. Families can request you be added to the product vendor catalog.

Monthly subscription materials and content must be purchasable online by the school and deliverable to the student, not have recurring charges, auto-renew, or store payment information in order for us to purchase. If you provide subscription services and you do not meet the requirements above, please contact us to request information about setting up a purchase order agreement.

Service vendors must be suggested by students, guardians, teachers, or staff to obtain an invitation to fill out the application.

The goal of vendor onboarding is to establish community partnerships that promote and support students to meet performance and content expectations so they may graduate ready for college and career. To meet the varied needs of all students, community partnerships are established fairly, transparently, and legally by evaluating applications using a vendor evaluation rubric that is aligned with California Charter School Requirements.

View the Vendor Evaluation Rubric for more information.

The DLS is a detailed list of services. It lists each service a vendor wishes to provide to School students and provides details such as the educational description, cost, and duration for the listing. The DLS is reviewed by the school and approval must be obtained before the service can be provided to students.

If you wish to update your DLS please login to your Vendor Portal and use the pencil icon within the Detailed List of Services and Prices section of your portal.

Invoicing inquiries can be sent to invoicing@yosemitevalleycharter.org.
