The board recognizes some students may wish to take courses outside the country. Generally, students must obtain board approval prior to participating in the international student exchange program if the student wants to receive credit for the program. If it is a continuing program which has received a favorable evaluation by the administration and the program will be carried out in the future as it has in the past, prior board approval is not required.
The board's approval is not an assumption of liability, but rather an approval of the credits from the program toward graduation requirements. The students, employees or others traveling with the students will assume all costs and maintain personal and liability insurance protection. The school district assumes no cost or liability for the participants.
It will be the responsibility of the superintendent to keep the board informed of ongoing programs and to bring new programs to the board's attention.
