TRANSPORTATION POLICY

 Participants are responsible for getting to and from practices, as well as, arriving on time for bus departures.

Participants are expected to ride on school provided transportation to and from all contests.  It is the philosophy of the Activity Department that this process be part of the entire learning experience.  The North Harrison Board of Education, administration, faculty and staff take responsibility both legally and morally for the safe transportation of students to and from school sponsored activities. Administrative discretion can be used in emergency situations.

  1. All students will travel to and from all activities on school provided transportation under direct supervision of a North Harrison School District employee.
  2. Any student that does not travel to an activity on school provided transportation would be considered ineligible to participate in that specific activity or activities.
  3. Parents/Guardian(s) who need to transport their student to an activity must have permission from a proper authority in a reasonable amount of time prior to the scheduled departure time from school for the specific activity or activities.  Under no circumstance will a student be allowed to ride to the activity site with someone other than the parent and maintain eligibility for the activity or activities.  Parents will be asked to sign in their student upon arrival at the activity site.
  4. Parents/Guardian(s) who wish to take their own student(s) home must sign the student(s) out on a form provided by the activity sponsor.  Students will in no circumstance be allowed to ride home with a boyfriend, girlfriend, or persons other than their parent or guardian.  Any student found to be in violation of this provision would be considered ineligible for the next activity they would normally attend.  Continued violations of any provision set forth here will result in an administrative review and could subsequently result in prolonged suspension from all activities.
  5. Parents/Guardians(s) may make special arrangements for Grandparents to transport their child home from an activity, if personal contact is made (in person, by phone etc.) and a written note is provided. This request must be made to a proper authority of the school.
