332.405
Transportation; board and room; pedestrian facilities. (1) The district school board
shall provide transportation for pupils or combinations of pupils and other
persons to and from school-related activities where required by law or when
considered advisable by the board.

 (2) The board may
furnish board and room for pupils in lieu of transportation when reasonable
board and room can be provided at equal or less expense than transportation.
The board may also provide board and room in a facility that existed on July 1,
1998, or a replacement facility for that facility, for pupils attending a
district school as described in ORS 327.006 (6)(a)(B) or through a power of
attorney authorized under ORS 109.056 (2). This subsection does not apply to a
pupil who attends a district school through a power of attorney and who is a
foreign exchange student enrolled in a school under a cultural exchange
program.

 (3) The
transportation costs or expenses for board and room shall be paid from funds
available to the district for that purpose.

 (4) The district
school board may expend district funds to improve or provide for pedestrian
facilities off district property if the board finds that the expenditure
reduces transportation costs of the district and enhances the safety of pupils
going to and from schools of the district. [Formerly 338.010; 1981 c.237 §1;
1981 c.403 §3; 1993 c.45 §53; 1999 c.961 §4; 2011 c.718 §17; 2019 c.57 §16]
