ABOUT US
Facility Rentals
In keeping with Albuquerque Academy’s mission and commitment to outreach, we are pleased to make campus facilities available for rental to community organizations. Our campus contains a range of both indoor and outdoor venues that can be used for meetings, conferences, seminars, concerts, performances, film viewings, sports activities, and other special events.
Albuquerque Academy is particularly interested in working with organizations whose missions match that of the school and involve serving children. First priority for space is always given to the Academy community.
All groups requesting to use Albuquerque Academy facilities are required to:
- Pay a facilities rental fee based on an hourly rate per space requested
- Pay to have an approved faculty/staff liaison (selected by Albuquerque Academy) in addition to the facility rental fee
- Provide a valid certificate of insurance that meets our coverage requirements
- Provide a W-9

Approved Liaison: All events require an Albuquerque Academy employee liaison. This liaison must be a contracted faculty/staff member hired by the Academy to be present for the entire event. A fee of $30 per hour will be charged to the organization, starting from the time of setup to the completion of takedown following the event. There is a four-hour minimum charge. The liaison will be selected by the Academy upon approval of the event.

Filming Location
If you are a location scout interested in filming on campus, contact the head of school’s office.
Photography Location and Other Campus Use by Vendors
Our campus is beautiful, but we cannot accommodate private photography requests. Similarly, we do not allow outside vendors — e.g., academic tutors, private athletic coaches, food trucks, etc. — to use our facilities without written permission. Due to limited availability, liability guidelines, and security protocols, we can open campus grounds to the public only during official school events, school-sponsored activities, or visits hosted by an employee.
