Team Transportation to Non-Events

[MechEng83]

We take a bus to any official competition or offseason competition. We also take a bus to the Indiana FIRST Forums, since it's a major team activity and not close. If events occur within in the school district, we just have students drive/parents drop off at the venues.

For other optional local or small activities, it's a "find your own transportation" policy.

In terms of parents driving other students or students driving other students, we leave that determination up to the parents of the students. We don't facilitate any ride-sharing.

Our mentors are prohibited from transporting students for any events or even transporting them to practice due to liability concerns. When a mentor is also a parent, it blurs the line.


Side Note: Because transportation is such a big pain with respect to school policies, we have made a big push to host things locally, including our own scrimmage event.
