Safety: The types of activities conducted during the camp will include working with moving parts, electrical components, hand tools, and soldering, which can conceivably cause some injury. Basic safety precautions will be followed at all times. Parents/guardians should provide any relevant information about medical or other special needs of their children.
Behavior: Farragut High expects all camp participants to behave in an acceptable manner, use acceptable language, and use tools and equipment in a safe and acceptable manner. Students will be instructed and guided on proper use of tools and will be expected to follow procedures as requested. Behavior that disrupts the program for staff or other participants, violates laws or local rules, or risks injury to others or damage to equipment is unacceptable. Any participant violating this policy will be given one verbal warning: after a second instance, the parent/guardian will be called; upon a third instance, the participant will be discharged from the program. No refunds will be given in this case.
Photographs and Media: Part of the mission of the science, math, and robotics programs at FHS is to promote science, math, engineering, and technology education. As such, we have many ways of providing information to the public about our programs and activities. It is difficult to know who may or may not be videotaped or photographed by our staff or visiting media or new organizations. All camp participants may be photographed or interviewed during the camp, and each participant’s image and first name may subsequently appear in print or electronic media. Full names and other information will not be shared without first contacting parents/guardians.
AGREEMENT AND RELEASE: I hereby affirm that the attached information about my child is correct, and that I have read and agree to the above policies. My child has permission to engage in all activities within this program unless noted otherwise. I give Knox County Schools permission to use my child’s likeness in materials promoting its programs. Knox County Schools, Farragut High, its employees, program volunteers and affiliates are released from any and all liability, claims, or causes of action.
