Use of Facilities
Schools belong to the community. The use of school facilities by the Piqua community is encouraged and guidelines have been developed.  Community use of schools is not to interfere with regular school purposes, impose undue burden on personnel, or strain funds allotted for building services and maintenance.  Some specific regulations and conditions must be met. There is a schedule of fees and charges for the use of buildings and grounds. A sponsoring organization or group must indicate it:

1. intends to provide a program which promotes the welfare of the community and be for community purposes;
2. guarantees orderly behavior;
3. underwrites any damages due to its use of the premises;
4. pays for the use of equipment, property or grounds at the established rates; and
5. possesses liability insurance.

Priority will be given to Piqua City School events.  Facility Usage Agreements are not required for school activities, which must be scheduled through the building principal or designee.

 A Facility Usage Agreement is necessary when a group or organization wants to use school facilities, assuring the Superintendent (or designee) that the group/organization complies with all regulations and respects the property, equipment and grounds of the school.    Arrangements to use special equipment must be made with the district's Business Coordinator at the same time the Facility Usage Application is filed.  Specific events may require security and/or parking attendants. 

It is recommended that groups or organizations file for use at least 30 days prior to the date of the proposed use.  Details of the use, including special custodial or kitchen help, is arranged by the Business Coordinator, who also checks district/school calendars for possible conflicts in usage.  For further information or to request a Facility Usage Agreement form, please call 937-773-4321.
