Transportation of Students By Certificated or Classified Employees
(Legal Responsibilities and Liabilities)

 

1.) A Driver Data form must be on file before any district vehicle can be driven for any purpose. These are obtained by request from the Human Resources office.

 

2.) Intermittent and temporary employees are not authorized to transport students to college related functions or on college business at any time.

 

3.) Students can volunteer to drive district transportation during field trip (usually earth sciences' activities) and it is part of their curriculum. They must be in our driver data website and provide all documentation.

 

4.) Students traveling off-campus for a school event and/or school funded conference need to complete a "Student Travel Packet" from the Student Affairs office. 

 

 

 

Examples:

 

 

Case #1 - Transportation of students in personal vehicles.

 
  • A Driver Data form must be on file.
  • Personal insurance must be in force as the employee cannot escape personal liability.
  • Prior approval in writing from appropriate administration must be on file.
  • A student cannot be delegated to drive even if the student has cleared a Driver Data form. (Students can only drive college vehicles after special clearance.)
  • Trips must be clearly related to college business; only direct to-and-from event travel is covered; co-curricular or extracurricular events, which are a normal part of an assignment, are included as authorized travel.
  • There is no district coverage when student are given rides "out of goodness of one's heart" (e.g., unauthorized to attend the event, hitchhiking to college).
 

 

Case #2 - Transportation of students in district-owned vehicles or other public carrier.

 
  • Insurance protection is much clearer, since such modes of transportation are directly related to district insurance coverage.
  • Official purpose of travel and authorization is easier to document
