DKC: EXPENSE REIMBURSEMENTS

Personnel and school department officials who incur expenses in car­rying out their authorized duties will be reimbursed by the school department upon submission of a properly completed and approved voucher and any supporting receipts required by the Superintendent.

In the event travel is required staff will be reimbursed by the current allowable federal rate. However, a monthly travel stipend, in an amount established by the Committee, will be paid to the Superintendent, Assistant Superintendent, Business Manager, and others authorized by the Committee who are required to travel regularly within the school system on official business.

To the extent budgeted for such purposes in the school budget, ap­proval of travel requests will be as follows:

1. Travel by School Committee members must have prior approval of the School Committee.

2. Any travel request not budgeted for must be approved in advance by the Committee. Other Travel requests may be approved by the Superintendent.

3. Each individual request will be judged on the basis of its benefit to the school system.
