5830 - STUDENT FUND-RAISING
The Board of Education acknowledges that the solicitation of funds from students by students must be limited since compulsory attendance laws make the student a captive donor and since such solicitation may disrupt the program of the District.
For purposes of this policy "student fund-raising" shall include student solicitation and collection of money for any purpose including collection of money in exchange for tickets, papers, or any other goods or services.
The Board will permit student fund-raising by students in school, on District property, or at any District-sponsored event only when the profit therefrom is to be used for District purposes or for an activity connected with the District.
Student fund-raising by approved District organizations, those whose funds are managed by the Treasurer, may be permitted in school by the administrator. Student fund-raising by approved District organizations off District grounds may be permitted under administrative guidelines of the Superintendent.
Fund raising by students on behalf of District-related organizations whose funds are not managed by the Treasurer may be permitted on District grounds in accordance with the Superintendent's administrative guidelines.
These administrative guidelines should:
| A. | specify the times and places in which funds may be collected; | ||
| B. | describe permitted methods of solicitation which do not place undue pressure on students; | ||
| C. | limit the kind and amount of advertising for solicitation. |
