§ 8773 Outdoor Education Property Transfer

Key Takeaways

  • •If a county school leader doesn't run outdoor science or conservation classes for 5 years in a row, any land or stuff they own for those classes goes to a special school fund.
  • •The money from selling or renting that land or stuff also goes into the same school fund.
  • •The school fund can use this money for other school things, unless there's a special agreement that says something different.

Example

A county has a forest used for teaching kids about nature, but they stop having classes there for 5 years.

The forest and any money made from it (like renting it out) would go to the county school fund to be used for other school needs.
