Community Use of School Facilities
Please complete these three items:
- Read message below.
- Read the School Board Policy Statements
- Fill out the Community Use of School Facilities Form and submit it to the Principals Office (updated 03/18/13).
Enclosed you will find the Winnacunnet School District Policy KG that explains how “residents of the communities within the school district” may request the use of our facilities. In addition you will find the Regulation KG-R that prescribes specific instructions for the person or organization making the request. You will notice that all requests must be made in writing 14 days prior to the date of use.All requests are logged in at the Principal’s office and sent to the appropriate area manager for their approval.
Please note that School Board Policy Statements states that Winnacunnet High School has first priority for events scheduled by July 1 to give SAU 21 schools the month of August to register their requests. After September 1, outside groups may request the use of our facilities, and the Principal only has the authority to approve requests that are “for continuing education, discussion, civic, social, recreation, entertainment, and such other purposes that promote the welfare of the community.”
The expectations for use and conduct are also outlined in the regulation. The Principal shall assign a fee charge based on the fee structure on page 3 of the regulation. All non- SAU 21 users must provide the Principal with proof of liability insurance endorsed to the name of Winnacunnet High School for the amount of $1,000,000. The certificate must be on file in the Principal’s office no later than 48 hours prior to the use of the facility.
In this packet you will also find a facility use request form. It must be completely filled out up to the “Person Making the Request” line. It then should be turned in to the principal’s secretary, who will log the request and send it to the appropriate area director(s) for approval signatures. Upon completion of the form, the principal’s secretary shall inform the requesting person as to the principal’s decision. A copy of all written requests, whether approved or denied, will be provided to the person making the request. All facility use requests shall be filed in the Principal’s office.
