TDSB Facility Permits
|
Community use of Schools is an initiative that supports access to school space outside of school hours for not-for-profit community groups.
The Toronto District School Board is committed to providing all of its communities with reasonable access to public schools when facilities are not being used for regular school activities.
In order to ensure that communities have fair and equitable access, groups seeking the use of school facilities must first obtain a permit. Permits will be issued depending upon the availability of space and caretaking staff and/or other Board approved personnel. Permits are issued on a first-come, first-serve basis. Fees will be charged according to an established schedule. |
