Board Policy
- The Board recognizes that from time-to-time out-of-district students may request to enroll as part-time students in Canyons District schools to attend classes and/or participate in Canyons School District sponsored extra and co-curricular activities. Because the Board’s primary responsibility is to provide educational services and opportunities for Canyons School District students, the Board limits opportunities for out-of-district students to enroll as part-time students and participate in Canyons District activities.
- The District Administration is therefore authorized to enroll out-of-district students as part-time students and allow out-of-district student participation in Canyons School District activities according to the provisions of the following administrative regulations.
