1330 Use of School Facilities by Community

Since the schools belong to the people of the School District and since the plant facilities are established, maintained and operated largely by taxes, the Board encourages the use of such facilities when there is not interference with the regular school program.

Use of schools by individuals and/or organizations operated for private gain is permitted but must meet standards prepared by the Superintendent which require considerable benefit to school children or to a large segment of the community.

The Superintendent is directed to establish and maintain regulation, consistent with Board policy, for granting out-side use of school facilities to community and other groups.

The Board specifically prohibits the following activities:

1. Meetings promulgating any theory or doctrine subversive to the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof.

2. Any activity violating the concept of good morals, manner, or taste.

3. Any activity injurious to the buildings, grounds, or equipment.

4. Commercial advertising.

5. Fund raising activities not related to the schools except as permitted by Board Policy or special action of the Board.

6. Activities which are discriminating in the legal sense.

The Superintendent of Schools is authorized to approve and arrange for scheduling the use of school facilities by qualified applicants who satisfy the above purposes and limitations.

Right is reserved by the Board to revoke any such permit, without liability, should such action be deemed necessary or desirable.

School equipment may be loaned to responsible community groups for a worthy non-profit, educational, or charitable purpose. The Superintendent of Schools is directed to establish and maintain regulations consistent with this policy which carefully controls use of school equipment.
