Mason City School District facilities are the educational home to over 10,000 students each weekday. Outside the educational day, Mason's facilities are host to athletic competitions, performing arts productions, cultural celebrations, and community events from local to national levels.
Not only do the events at Mason’s state of the art facilities offer a revenue stream to the school district and stimulate the local economy - they engage Mason residents in a diverse array of activity close to home.
Facility Use Application
Organizations, not individuals, can reserve Mason facilities. Complete a Facility Use Application and send it to the listed address accompanied by a $25 check from the organization renting the facility. The $25 is an application fee.
Who can rent the facilities at Mason City Schools?
An organization that carries a minimum of $1 million dollars liability insurance policy may request to rent the facilities. Mason facilities are not available for rent for personal events.
Is there a fee to submit a request?
Yes, there is a $25 application fee. The check is payable to MASON CITY SCHOOLS and must be submitted from the organization renting the facility (as opposed to a personal check).
Will the fees be different if it is a non-profit organization?
According to our district policy, Mason City Schools does not differentiate pricing due to the type of organization requesting the facility.
When can a request for the next school year be submitted?
Any organization may submit a request for the following school year on or after February 1st.
Is the submitted request approved when submitted?
Facility request applications are addressed in the order received, unless they are for the following school year. If and when approved, an email confirmation will be sent to the contact person named on the facility request application. If the request is for the following school year, the event will not be confirmed until all school events are first entered into the calendar for that school year. School events always have priority scheduling.
