BERLIN SITE ELEMENTARY AGE FAMILIES PLEASE READ! 21st Century Community Learning Center (Sparks Club) Acknowledgement
Boys & Girls Club of the Tri-County Area (BGC) & Sparks Club Community Learning Center (CLC) Authorization: I understand the rules of BGC and I request that my child be admitted into membership. I have explained the rules to my child. I understand the hours of operation of BGC and that additional charges may be assessed if I pick up my child after these hours. I hereby give permission for the participant listed on this application to take part in BGC and CLC activities, which may include off-site events, academic assistance, continuing education and recreational programs. BGC may freely transport my child within the confines of the Berlin Area School District without further permission. If a medical emergency arises, we will take all steps necessary to ensure the safety of the participant. If necessary, we will call a public emergency vehicle for transport to an emergency facility. I understand that I will be responsible for any transportation charges and medical expenses incurred. The participant is releasing the operator for any acts of negligence or its negligent acts. The participant assumes all risk associated with negligent acts of either the BGC or the participant. The participant cannot release willful, wanton, or intentional acts done with reckless disregard of the natural and probable consequence of injury. Additionally, I hereby give my consent for emergency medical care or treatment to be used only if I cannot be reached immediately. I give my consent to BGC and CLC to take the participant’s photograph during program activities, to be used for education, public relations and marketing purposes. I further give my consent to the school, BGC and CLC to share the participant’s student records with each other for purpose of providing educational support and assistance. In addition, I understand that the school district, BGC and CLC will use participant records to evaluate individual progress and improvement, as well as to evaluate the impact of the program on student achievement and to obtain continued funding for the program. BGC and CLC require full participation in both: Academic Enrichment (Math & Literacy Activities) and Academic Support (Homework Help). While we will provide homework help, it will not be the main focus of our program. Please make sure to check with your child nightly to see if homework is competed. Divulging sensitive income information, such as free & reduced lunch status, is voluntary and will not affect whether a child will have access to programming.
