SCHOOL BOARDS
HELD NOT LIABLE.

A school district, being a muni-
cipal corporation, is not liable for
damages resulting from injuries
sustained by school children while
being transported to and from
school, according to Attorney Gen
eral Van Wrinkle, in an opinion
written for the information OF j.
A. Churchill, state superintendent
of public instruction. The board
of directors of a school district is
liable in such cases only for dam
ages resulting from injuries sus-
tained through its negligence, the
opinion holds. The attorney gen
eral further points out that an en-
ploye of the school district en-
gagged in the transportation of pu-
pills is not liable for damages re-
suIting from hisS own negligent
acts. The safety and protection
of the school children depend upon
the selection of such transporta-
ton facilities as will not result in
injuries, the opinion declares.
