EEAFB, Use of School Buses by Community Groups

View Print Version

In general, transportation equipment purchased by the school district is to be used primarily for school purposes. Nevertheless, the Board of Education may make transportation equipment available for the use of appropriate community groups when such use does not impinge upon or impair its use for the school district.

As permitted by law, all groups allowed to use district transportation equipment shall be expected to pay the actual costs involved.

Community groups composed of citizens 65 years of age or older shall be given special consideration, as required by the statute relating to community use of school buses.

Non-school use of school transportation equipment shall not be intermingled with student transportation, nor shall it interfere with:

  1. Student transportation to, from or between schools;

  2. Student transportation for school activities and functions;

  3. Emergency transportation for students;

  4. Time required for maintenance and service of equipment;

  5. Provision of standby equipment for school purposes.

The Board shall approve administratively developed regulations for community use of school transportation equipment.

Adopted April 6, 1994
