(KLZA)--The Falls City Board of Education approved amendments to a number of policies during their July 9th meeting.

District 56 Board members approved revising a policy on school buses. The revision will allow local nonprofit entities promoting educational, civic, or community activities to lease school buses for transporting to and from non school-sponsored activities within the state.

The transportation cannot interfere with or disrupt the education program of the school district and cannot interfere with or delay the transportation of students.

The local nonprofit must pay the cost of using the school district vehicle. The District reserves the right to decline any request by a non-profit entity at the superintendent's discretion.
