Facility Rental

Welcome to the Facilities Rental Page  Please call for an appointment.

Board Policy GKD (Local) permits public use of school facilities by non-school groups for educational, recreational, civic, or social activities when these activities do not conflict with school use or Board Policy. Non-school groups are organizations other than school-sponsored groups (e.g., student clubs, school teams) and school support groups (e.g., PTAs, booster clubs).

Ysleta Independent School District welcomes the use of district facilities by non-school organizations. However, such use of District facilities shall not be permitted when it interferes with the education programs of any campus or District-scheduled events - including facility maintenance and/or repair projects. All decisions regarding the use of the district facilities are made keeping this in mind.

Ysleta ISD is a tax-supported, non-profit organization established to serve the students and youth residing within the boundaries of the District. See GKD Regulation and GKD Local policy for further information.

Q: Who can fundraise on District property?

A:  The District supports its student clubs, booster, and support organizations by allowing them the first right to sell concessions at events held in District facilities. When an organization requesting non-school use proposes to have sales/concessions at its Event, the campus designee or Administrative and Cultural Arts Center (ACAC) designee will first offer the concessions opportunity to one or more school groups. If no school group accepts the opportunity, the organization will operate its concessions. Suppose the organization contracts with an outside party to operate the concessions. In that case, the campus or ACAC may collect a percentage determined by the campus or ACAC designee of net profit from sales/ concessions for the Event.
