Facility Use and Rentals - Kearney School District

As a service to the community, Kearney School District may allow community groups and individuals to use district facilities for educational, recreational, social, civic, philanthropic and other similar purposes when the facilities are not being used by the district or district-sponsored groups. The Superintendent or designee may approve or deny facility use requests in accordance with law. Unless otherwise required by law, KSD will maintain its facilities as nonpublic forums and reserves the right to exclude individuals or groups from its facilities or cancel or modify any permission granted.

Community members or organizations should contact the school office for more details and to initiate a rental process for use of any facilities on that campus.

Priority of Use

Use of KSD facilities will not be granted if the use conflicts or interferes with a district-sponsored activity, and all uses granted are contingent upon the district's needs. Any community group or individual may apply to use District facilities but applicants who intend to use District facilities for purposes that directly benefit District students will be given priority. Staff use of District property and facilities for personal purposes, or reasons other than performing the staff member's duties with the district, will be subject to the application process and rules applicable to other applicants.

Fees
