School facilities are not available for rental during the regularly scheduled school day.  School space requests are considered for Monday through Friday after 6:00 pm, Saturdays and Sundays. School space requests are considered for organizations (non-profit or profit), that are considered organizations under the Articles of Corporations with the Secretary of State of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. School space is not for individual use.

Request for space during school recesses (including weekends) and summer are rarely approved in order to provide time for Belmont Public Schools (BPS) and Town of Belmont programs, buildings maintenance, repairs and cleaning.

All permits are subject to approval by the Belmont Schools Superintendent.

There are restrictions regarding the use of auditorium lights, stage access, and sound equipment for any non-school use. Please email the BPS Rental Desk at kmurphy@belmontschools.net for information on these restrictions as well as information regarding building and custodian fees and insurance requirements.

Depending on the school, permits may not be processed between June 1 and September 15 for the upcoming school year. This allows schools and school offices to concentrate on the opening of the school year and on scheduling spaces for school events and use. You will be notified as soon as possible as to the availability of the space in the school you request.
