California Education Code Section 35330(b3) states, "No expenses of pupils participating in a field trip or excursion to other state, the District of Columbia, or a foreign country authorized by this section shall be paid with school district funds. Fairfield-Suisun Unified School District is requesting a waiver of Education Code Section 35330(d) to allow the students from Grange Middle School and Armijo High School to use District funds for the April trip to Kentucky for the VEX Worlds Competition. VEX Worlds 2016 was the world’s largest robotics competition with over 16,000 participants from 37 nations. The waiver will allow the school district to use state funds to support the students who would not otherwise have the funds to attend. Immediately following the public hearing, the action item will be considered by the Governing Board which, if approved, will result in a waiver request being submitted to the California Department of Education.
