724 - Student Transportation for Extracurricular Activities

The Board, in its discretion, may provide District transportation for extracurricular activities including, but not limited to, transporting student participants and other students to and from extracurricular events.

Students participating in extracurricular events, other than those held at District facilities, may be transported to the extracurricular event by District transportation vehicles or by another means approved by the Superintendent.  Students attending extracurricular events, other than those held at District facilities, may be transported to the extracurricular event by District transportation vehicles.

Students, who are provided transportation in District transportation vehicles for extracurricular events, will ride both to and from the event in the school vehicle unless arrangements have been made with the building principal prior to the event.  A student's parent may personally appear and request to transport the student home from a school-sponsored event in which the student traveled to the event on a District transportation vehicle.

It is the responsibility of the Superintendent to make a recommendation to the Board annually as to whether the District will provide the transportation authorized in this policy.  In making the recommendation to the Board, the Superintendent will consider the financial condition of the District, the number of students who would qualify for such transportation, and other factors the Board or Superintendent deem relevant.
