St. Mary's Academy does have a number of spaces that can be scheduled for use for classes and activities. During the school day, whatever normal classes are scheduled in spaces take precedence, even if they are reserved accidentally. Note: All rooms have an approver associated with them based on who is responsible for the space. So, until you receive the email confirmation that your reservation was approved, do not assume that you get to use the space.
Students: There are two spaces you can reserve in the Boyle Center: Boyle Center Study Room & Boyle Center Project Room. You can reserve these for no more than an hour at a time and only a week in advance. Ms. O'Brien or Ms. Vincent can answer questions about how frequently you can reserve these spaces.
Faculty and Staff: BEFORE you reserve a room, check the 2024 2025 Faculty & Staff Calendar to ensure there are no potential conflicts with other events that may be happening. Then, email Ashley Sheridan, providing more details so she can add the event to the calendar(s).
