Recognizing the importance of a comprehensive utilization of school facilities and the public ownership responsibility, the policy of the board shall be to allow groups to use these facilities as often as possible subject to administrative approval, the priority rights of the educational schedule, and receipt of any required rental fee based on the costs incurred by the district from this special use by the public. Every use and rental application shall receive individual consideration and decision by the principal/designee of the building, or the superintendent/designee. After approval, the head custodian shall be notified by the appropriate administrator.
All applications for use of school facilities shall be made using the online facility request system found on the CCSD website.
When the request is in keeping with policy 915 and there are no objections or concerns about the arrangements raised by either the building principal/designee, superintendent/designee, or the party desiring to use the facilities, approval shall be given.
A copy of the request shall be filed with the board secretary at least forty-eight (48) hours prior to the date on which the building is to be used. Requests for guidance or appeals regarding any aspect of an application for the use of the buildings shall be made to the superintendent/designee. If the problem cannot be solved, it shall be taken to the Board.
