It is the purpose of this policy to authorize a Community Services Fund (hereinafter referred to as “Fund 80”) for the development and maintenance of programs and services outside of the regular curricular and extra-curricular programs (these programs may include education, training, recreational, cultural and/or athletic programs and services).
The Community Services Program is accounted for in Fund 80 and the Board may fund the program by a combination of a local tax levy and user/rental fees. Fund 80 expenses shall not be paid from the Fund 10 general fund.

The following costs are ineligible costs for community programs and services:
- Costs for any program or service that it limited to only District students;
- Costs for any program or service whose schedule presents a significant barrier for age-appropriate School District resident to participate in the program or service;
- Costs that are not the actual, additional cost to operate community programs and services under this policy; and
- Costs that would be incurred by the District if community programs and services were not being provided by the District.
The Board must adopt a budget for Fund 80 expenditures.
