Is a district required to pay the state’s mileage reimbursement rate for privately-owned vehicles?
Answer: No, a local board of education can decide to reimburse teachers/parents at a rate other than the state rate. If the mileage rate your district reimburses exceeds the federal mileage rate, there are tax consequences. 

Federa Reimbursement Rate: 70 cents
Effective Jan 1, 2025: The federal privately-owned vehicle mileage reimbursement rate increased to 70 cents per mile.
