There is currently no School Board Policy which addresses the occasional need for transportation of school children to be transported to essential activities (medical and education enhancement) by non-employees of the School District utilizing School Board Owned passenger vehicles ("white fleet").  Employees of the Children's Home Society who are working at Clay schools as part of the Clay Community Partnership School Project have need of the ability to perform such transport.  Transport would be for essential activities, would occur after consent is obtained from parents and the school or district administration and their vehicle use would be monitored.  Florida Statute 1006.22(1)(b) requires that policy must be adopted to implement procedures to be utilized in implementing this activity.
