A school district employee or an adult (out of high school) activity/event supervisor must be present while the school district facility or equipment is being used by an entity.
After a school district facility, site, or equipment has been used by an entity, any necessary cleaning, including restoring the facility, site or equipment to the condition it was in prior to its use, will be done by an employee assisted by a committee from the entity; unless otherwise waived by the Board or designee. The charges to the entity for the use of the facility, site or equipment will include these costs. However, if excessive costs are involved in cleaning or otherwise restoring the facility, site, or equipment to the condition it was in prior to its use, the board reserves the right to charge the entity for these excessive costs.

Other school district facilities, sites, or areas in the school district building or equipment are off limits to the entity.
A cancellation after the facility or equipment is made ready for the entity will be charged at the full rate. Cancellations made prior to that time will be charged a minimum cancellation fee or the costs incurred to the school district in anticipation of the entity’s use, whichever is greater.
