Can public schools close recreational fields to the public when school is not in session? I attend a public high school in California. The other day some friends and I were kicked off the field by a school official. We are still on summer break so theres no school in session and there was no one else trying to make use of the field. I thought that public schools had to leave recreational fields open to the public because they are funded by tax payer dollars. Am I just misinformed or do we have a right to use the field?

The Civic Center Act does not require schools to make facilities available to individual users. It only mandates that they be made available for organizations, and allows for restrictions on the time and manner of use, as well as charging fees for use. There is no requirement that public school grounds be open to the general public at any time.
