Public Use of Schools and Facilities

Schools and other CBE facilities can be used by registered non-profit organizations or societies when the use will not conflict with the school program or school needs. CBE Administrative Regulation 8004 and the Joint Use Agreement between Calgary Recreation, Calgary Catholic School District and the CBE govern the public’s use of schools and other CBE facilities.

Types of Facility Rentals

Public Use

Non-profit groups can book through City of Calgary Rentals & Bookings including School/Parent society activities.

Before booking, consider which type of space you want to use. There are two types of rental areas in a school facility:

  • Public Use Area including gymnasiums, multi-use areas and cafeteria eating areas.
  • Instructional Areas including classrooms, libraries and other spaces not deemed public use spaces. The school principal’s permission is required for public use of instructional areas.

School Connections YYC (SCYYC)

School Connections YCC connects schools with community-based non-profit organizations to access space in schools for programs and services to support students and families. Programs and services can be offered in schools from school dismissal until public rentals times. These hours may vary depending on the school.

Non-profit organizations can offer programs and services and school principals can search for programs and services that will benefit students.

Southern Alberta Heritage Language Association (SAHLA)

Non-profit Language Learning Groups that want to rent CBE school instructional spaces to teach a language as a Heritage Language School must be a member of the Southern Alberta Heritage Language Association (SAHLA). Review the Southern Alberta Heritage Language School (SAHLA) Guidelines if you're​ interested in renting instructional space from CBE.
