Policy 801.07

Student Transportation for Extracurricular Activities

The board in its discretion may provide school 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 the school district facilities, may be transported to the extracurricular event by school district transportation vehicles or by another means approved by the superintendent. Students attending extracurricular events, other than those held at the school district facilities may be transported to the extracurricular event by school district transportation vehicles.

Students, who are provided transportation in school district transportation vehicles for extracurricular events, shall ride both to and from the event in the school vehicle unless arrangements have been made with the building principal or designee (activities director or coach/sponsor) prior to the event. A student’s parent may personally appear before the district’s event supervisor (activities director or coach/sponsor) and request to transport the student home from a school-sponsored event in which the student traveled to the event on a school district transportation vehicle.
