Our school buildings, athletic venues, and grounds are wonderful spaces where the Germantown community can learn, play, perform, compete, and connect. We have a number of additional spaces available for community use outside the regular school day including:
• the Performing Arts Center
• swimming pool - 25 yards and 8 lanes
• field house
• cafetorium/stage spaces
• gyms, tennis courts, and athletic fields

These facilities can be used by community members who are seeking accessible, convenient, and affordable space to hold their events. The public is encouraged to utilize the district’s facilities when such use doesn’t interfere with regular school programming. Please remember, district activities take precedence for use of the facilities.

The 5-Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) has been created in order to identify, plan, implement, and complete all necessary projects and/or updates to the District’s facilities and grounds. This CIP is intended to keep all district property operating in a safe, efficient, and beneficial manner, for all students, staff, and community.
