The Board believes that district educational and extra-curricular programs shall have priority over other community uses, and has directed the administration to develop regulations governing building and facility use by community user groups and/or individuals. The Board reserves the right to assess fees for community use of district facilities. Depending on the type of activity, proof of liability insurance may be required.
