In case of emergency or serious illness, we request the school contact us first. If we are not available, please contact the designated emergency contact(s). If the emergency contact(s) cannot be reached, the school has our permission to make whatever arrangements deemed necessary for our child(ren)'s treatment. If the emergency is life-threatening and we cannot be reached, the physician has permission to act accordingly absolving the school of any liability. This statement of cooperation will serve as a blanket permission slip from my child s date of enrollment unless otherwise notified by me the parent or legal guardian. We understand that in order to participate as a volunteer we must abide by the guidelines set forth in the volunteer policy and have all necessary forms completed. RIGHTS OF USE AND REPRODUCTION: We authorize URCA or anyone authorized by URCA, to use and reproduce all audio and video tapes and photographs which URCA takes of our child(ren) or any family member produced for school literature, advertisements, and promotional purposes without further compensation. All copies, masters, negatives, pictures and proofs shall constitute URCA property, solely and completely. DISCIPLINE: We believe discipline is a necessary aspect of our child(ren)'s education. We give permission for our child(ren)'s teacher and/or administration to make and enforce classroom regulations in a manner consistent with Christian principles and discipline as set forth in Scriptures and outlined in our handbook. We understand that we have the responsibility to actively support the authority, philosophy, objectives, policies, procedures, and discipline of the school as established by the School Board. We understand that we may be called and required to come discipline our child. I agree to do this and understand that failure to fulfill this requirement may result in losing the privilege for my child to be served by Upper Room Christian Academy. I have been personally informed of these procedures. PARENTAL COMMITMENT: We agree that we will in no case complain to other parents, but will register only necessary complaints with the teacher or administration following the Matthew 18 principle. We pledge our full cooperation to keep doctrinal controversy out of the school. We agree to support the school with our prayers and positive attitude. We understand that if at any time the school determines, in its sole discretion, that our actions do not support the ministry, or reflect a lack of cooperation and commitment to the home and school working together, the school has the right to request the withdrawal of our child(ren). Admission to Upper Room Christian Academy is a privilege and not a right. It is a privilege granted with the understanding that students will desire to live as Bible-believing, consecrated Christians. Conduct exemplary of developing young Christians is expected. Drinking alcoholic beverages, using marijuana or other illegal drugs, smoking, profanity, disrespect for authority or property, improper sexual behavior and abuse of others by us, our child or any person visiting the school on our behalf are prohibited on our campus and discouraged in the home and private time away from school. Inappropriate clothing and playing loud music when visiting the school are not allowed. This applies to school and non-school related social activities where unacceptable behavior would have an adverse effect on the testimony of the school. As a URCA family, we will commit to the principle of the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman. FAITH STATEMENT: The general nature and object of Upper Room Christian Academy shall be to conduct an institution of learning for the general education of youth in the essentials of culture and its arts and sciences, giving special emphasis to the Christian faith and the ethics revealed in the Holy Scriptures that young people may be prepared spiritually, academically and socially for every good work. We believe in accordance with the Upper Room Church that the Bible is the inspired and only infallible written Word of God; that there is One God eternally existent in Three Persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit; we believe in the Blessed Hope, which is the rapture of the church of God, which is in Christ, at His return; that the only means of being cleansed from sin, is through repentance, faith in the precious Blood of Jesus Christ and accepting the gospel according to Romans 10:9-10; that regeneration by the Holy Ghost is absolutely essential for personal salvation; that the redemptive work of Christ on the Cross-provides healing for the human body in answer to believing prayer; that the baptism in the Holy Ghost, according to Acts 2:4 is given to believers who ask for it; and we believe in the sanctifying power of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a holy and separated life in this present world. We have read and are in agreement with the (1) Application, (2) Student Handbook (on line at (3) URCA Statement of Cooperation and the (4) Tuition and Financial Information Statement and hereby agree to abide by their stated policies. I further agree to hold the school, church and its agent harmless for any liability to my child or any parent or guardian thereof because of any claims on behalf of my child against the church, school or any agent thereof because of any injury to my child. Should legal action, for any reason, be taken against URCOGIC or URCA or any employee or agent thereof on my child s behalf, and the church, school or its agents not be found at fault, I agree to pay any attorney fees, court fees, damages or other costs that Upper Room COGIC or Upper Room Christian Academy or its agent should incur to defend itself against such action.
