502.10 - Vehicle Use

The board recognizes the convenience to families and students of having students drive to and park at their school attendance center.  Driving a motor vehicle or bicycle
to and parking it at the student's attendance center is a privilege.

Students who drive to and park at their school attendance center shall only drive to and park at their designated attendance center or at either their attendance center or a
shared district’s attendance center for the purpose of attending extracurricular activities.  Students may not loiter around or be in their vehicle during the school day
without permission from the principal.  Students shall leave their attendance center when there is no longer a legitimate reason for them to be at their attendance center. 
Students who drive shall enter and leave the parking lot by the routes designated by the principal. 

Students who live within one mile of school, and would not otherwise be eligible for a student driving permit, may be eligible for a student driving permit, for driving to
and from school and school activities and practices, if the student has a unique situation where needed with approval from principal or Superintendent.

Students who wish to drive to and park at their school attendance center shall comply with the rules and regulations established by the building principal.  Failure to
comply with this policy or the school district rules shall be reason for revocation of school driving and parking privileges as well as other disciplinary action including
suspension and expulsion.
