Facilities Management


The Facilities Management Department at the Santa Monica-Malibu Unified School District manages maintenance, repair, and safe operation of buildings; grounds and equipment; and custodial and landscape operations.

To assure reliability, efficiency and adequacy in all building maintenance and operations, we track repair work from initiation to completion.
  • Maintenance Planning: Administers planning for Maintenance Unit construction projects, including deferred maintenance, energy/utility management, and major repair and replacement.
  • Repair Dispatch: Responds to urgent requests for maintenance and repairs. Performs preventative maintenance programs.
  • Custodial Operations: cleaning services, activity set-up and maintenance supplies for all facilities.
  • Landscape Operations: landscaping, irrigation and pest management for all facilities.
  • Facility Rental: renting of a school gym, ball field classroom, auditorium, library, etc. at any school. Download the Facility Rental Form and bring it to the school of your choice with a $25 non-refundable fee. Other fees will be assessed at that time.
  • To rent one of the theaters or to hold a large special event, contact Carey Upton at carey.upton@smmusd.org
  • Work Orders: In order to request facility work at your site, please contact your Office Manager, who will review and submit your request to Facilities via the on-line work order system.
