FACILITY USAGE GUIDELINES

I. GENERAL STATEMENT

The Caro Board of Education encourages the use of its facilities by groups and organizations that have as their objective the development of personal character and civic welfare. The Board of Education reserves the right to deny the use of facilities for any purpose that is not consistent with the best interests of the community. The rules and regulations which follow are designed to provide community use of the school facilities to the extent that the regular school program will permit. Rental fees for facility use are on a cost, rather than a profit, basis.

II. FACILITIES OPEN TO RESERVATION

Facilities which may be reserved for use of community groups and organizations include: classrooms, cafeterias, multi-purpose rooms, kitchens, gymnasiums, indoor pool, and athletic fields.

III. GROUPS ELIGIBLE FOR FACILITY RESERVATION

A. Class I: Any organized group directly connected with the Caro Community Schools. These groups include: athletic teams, band, FHA, varsity club, freshman-senior classes, student council, future teachers, evening classes, parent support groups, booster clubs, and all other such school related groups.

B. Class II: Any organized, non-profit group within the school district whose purposes are civic, cultural, fraternal, or religious in nature. This group includes, but is not limited to: Caro Arts Society, Caro Historical Society, Civil Defense, Tuscola County Extension, Lions Club, Jaycees, Rotary Club, Exchange Club, church youth and family groups, and other such groups. These groups will be allowed to use the buildings rent free and will not be charged for custodial services when custodians are normally on duty. Class II groups will be charged for all custodial charges incurred after normal custodial hours.

C. Class III: Any non-profit groups whose interests or activities are limited exclusively to said group will be placed in Class III. Example: A service club having a fund raiser so as to build their own club house or church group having a fund raiser so as to purchase altar equipment. Use of school facilities for activities which result in personal or corporate gain will not be permitted.
