COMMUNITY USE OF SCHOOL FACILITIES

 

            The School Board may permit use of school property under its control when such use will not impair the efficiency of the school. The superintendent shall develop guidelines and applications for use of school property. Requests for the use of any school facilities shall be made to the superintendent or his/her designee. The division superintendent shall report to the School Board his/her actions under this policy.

 

            If the School Board permits the use of its facilities by members of the community or the distribution of literature on school property or at school functions, it will permit such use or such distribution by the Boy Scouts of America and the Girl Scouts of the USA to the same extent and in the same manner as all other persons or groups.
