Community Use of School Facilities
The Limestone District School Board recognizes that local groups and organizations have purposes and activities which are of social and educational value to communities in the district. It also recognizes that, in many communities, school buildings provide the only suitable meeting places for such groups to pursue their activities. Community Use of School Facilities is governed by Board Policies, Administrative Procedure 550 and Community Use of Schools Guidelines.
Community Use of Schools is an initiative between the Limestone District School Board along with the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Health Promotion (formally known as the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation or MTR) that supports access to school space outside of school hours for Not-for-Profit community groups.
The Limestone District School Board has been offering school space for rent, below costs, for many years before the partnering with the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation. The Community Use of Schools initiative has eliminated fees for many user groups in particular Non-for-Profit youth groups and greatly reduced fees for other groups as well.
