Superintendent's administrative procedures.
 
The parent of the participating student will be given, on request, the name of the driver and the description of the
vehicle.
 
No person shall be approved for the transportation of students in a private vehicle who is not an employee of this
Board, an approved volunteer, or the holder of a currently-valid license to operate a motor vehicle in the State of
Wisconsin, and has signed the form provided by the District.
 
No person shall be permitted to transport students who is not the holder of automobile liability and personal injury
insurance in the amount required by District administrative procedures. The Superintendent may withdraw the

report student misconduct to the principal.
 
Expenses incurred by drivers of private vehicles in the course of transporting students will be reimbursed by the
Board at the approved mileage rate and upon presentation of evidence of costs for tolls and parking fees.
