Closure of East High Community Gym and fields

The East High Community Gym, football field and track will be closed while crews work on establishing the interim campus for Armin Jahr Elementary, and during the construction of the new View Ridge Elementary Arts Academy. Please view this document for closure dates, and information on other sports facilities available from the City of Bremerton during the closure. 

We invite the community to utilize our facilities, for a fee, during non-school hours.

Getting Started

We encourage public use of our facilities when school is not in session. A fee is required to ensure that educational funds remain dedicated to their intended purpose.

Priority for using District facilities are given to groups (A-E) in the following order: 

  1. District-sponsored (Group A) activities, including curricular and co-curricular functions.
  2. Non-profit Bremerton youth groups (B)
  3. Community recreation/betterment programs (C).
  4. Other non-community or non-profit community organizations (D).
  5. Profit-generating/commercial enterprises (E)

Authorization to use school facilities does not imply endorsement of the activity, group, or its purposes. As public property, District facilities require that organizations renting them allow general public access to events. The District does not provide space for private parties or events with restricted attendance.

The cost for renting District facilities varies based on the type of organization and the specific part of the facility being rented.
