Facility Use Request - Community Group

CLICK HERE TO REQUEST FACILITY USE AT GENESEO CENTRAL SCHOOL

 

It is the belief of the Geneseo Central School District that the school belongs to the public and should be used as much as possible, as long as usage does not interfere with the educational programs of the school district.

Anyone interested in using a school’s facilities during non-instructional time must complete an online application at least two weeks prior to the date being requested. Please read the "Responsibilities For Use of Facilities" below and contact Craig Veley at (585) 243-3450 ext 1006 or at craigveley@geneseocsd.org with any questions.  The first time that you make a facility request using our online system ("Master Library") you will need to create an account. There is a user guide to assist with this process or at the bottom of this page.

The facility usage fees for each location are provided below.

Here is a video demonstration of requesting a space.

 

RESPONSIBILITIES FOR USE OF FACILITIES

 

All requests for the use of facilities are to be made to the Business Administrator at least 14 days prior to requested use. Upon approval of a request for use of school facilities it becomes the organization or group’s responsibility for replacement or repair of any damaged equipment, furniture, etc., including building facilities. Equipment, materials and furniture should be returned to the original location, in good condition and in good order. In addition, the sponsor group will be responsible for implementing the GCS Code of Conduct and maintaining a smoke free environment.

 

PROHIBITED USES: Any group or agency that seeks public use of school facilities for meetings, entertainment, and occasions that are under the exclusive control of that agency and the proceeds are to be applied for the benefit of that agency will be prohibited. In addition, meetings sponsored by political organization or the use of District facilities by any organization or group to conduct religious instruction or services will be denied.

EMERGENCY CLOSINGS: In the event of an emergency school closing due to inclement weather or emergency of any nature, all activities scheduled for that day or evening are cancelled. It will be the sole responsibility of any group or organization that has reserved any school facility to publicly announce the cancellation of their event.
