The Board of Education believes that school facilities belong to the public and should be used as extensively as possible.  When not required for school use, facilities may be made available for use by the community.  Rental rates and regulations are to ensure there is no additional cost attached to the school district's budget.  As well, the following requirements and restrictions have been put in place to limit additional costs to maintaining our facilities:
  • No Floor Hockey, Roller Blading/Skating, Skateboarding
  • No Birthday Parties
  • Fridays are un​available to the public to accommodate cleaning requirements
  • Use of the Ballenas Auditorium is limited to a cast size of 60 members
  • Weekend Energy Charge – $150 will be charged for weekend use to offset the increased costs of having a building active on a weekend.
  • Board Policy 105:  Use of School Facilities requires custodial coverage (4 hour minimum) while user groups are on site; therefore, weekend custodial costs will be charged at the weekend rate of $90/hour.

The District's Administrative Procedure: 105 - ​Use of School Facilities  has complete information on liability insurance, regulations, restrictions and more.  Schedule A (Page 9), which is attached to the Administrative Procedure​, outlines the hourly rates.

Please be aware of the following procedures:

  • ​A separate application is required for each site requested.  If there are back up choices for site availability purposes, please indicate them on a separate sheet attached to your application.
