Liberty board bans drones on school property

LIBERTY — The Liberty school board has banned the operation of drones on school property.

The Ohio High School Athletic Association has put pressure on local schools to restrict drones, which have been increasingly used to film events, including high-school football games, board members said at tonight’s meeting.

The board also approved the transfer of $30,000 from the general fund to the athletic fund. Superintendent Stan Watson said such a transfer is routine.

“We’re not Ohio State,” Watson said. “Our sports don’t create enough revenue to fund themselves. If we want to support these extracurricular activities, we’re going to have to kick in from the general fund.”
