The following regulations have been established to govern the use of school facilities by non-school groups.

1. The application for permission to use school facilities shall be made to the Superintendent/designee at least seven (7) days prior to the event, to allow the District to plan for upcoming events.
2. The application for use of school facilities shall be interpreted as a guarantee to the District that the organization/group/team will be responsible for the proper use of the premises, for proper adult supervision, for orderly conduct of the meetings held under its control and for prompt payment to the District to cover any damage to school property resulting from the organization's use of the facility.
3. The person(s) listed on the application will be held responsible for fulfilling the terms of the agreement, and must be a resident of the District.
4. A majority of an organization/group/team must be residents of the District before the application for use of school facilities will be considered.
5. The Board shall have final authority in interpreting Board policy, and in settling disputes regarding the eligibility of a non-school group's use of District facilities.
6. The Superintendent/designee will be responsible for:

• • Maintaining an accurate calendar of all uses of school facilities.
  • Approval of routine applications. If, in the Superintendent's opinion, an application calls for the use of the building for extraordinary purposes, the application shall be referred to the Board. "Extraordinary purposes" shall include such programs or activities beyond the routine activities that have by custom and practice become acceptable to the Board.
  •  Using discretion for event cancellations. Any such cancellation shall be made as early as possible so that all persons involved can be notified.
  •  Collection and/or waiving of rental fees for recognized organizations within the community.
  •  Periodically reviewing the guidelines for District facility usage.
