§ 8768 Outdoor Education Property Agreements

Key Takeaways

  • •Schools can team up with the county to buy or rent land for outdoor classes, like science or nature lessons.
  • •If they buy land together, the county superintendent owns it, not the schools.
  • •The schools don’t get any money if the land is sold or rented later, unless they agreed to it before buying.

Example

A group of schools wants to buy a forest to teach kids about trees and animals.

They make a deal with the county to buy the forest together. The county owns the forest, and if they sell it later, the schools don’t automatically get any of the money unless they had a special agreement about it.

If real property is purchased pursuant to such an agreement, title to such real property shall be vested in the office of the county superintendent of schools and the participating school districts, community college districts, or private schools shall have no interest in such property, nor in the proceeds of any sale, lease, exchange, or other disposition of such property, unless the parties otherwise provide in the agreement which authorizes the acquisition of such property.
