This is to certify that I, as parent/guardian, with legal responsibility for this participant, have read and explained the provisions in this waiver/release to my child/ward including the risks of presence and participation and his/her personal responsibilities for adhering to the rules and regulations for protection against communicable diseases.
I further acknowledge that Dream AcadeME can not guarantee that I will not become infected with Covid-19 or any other virus or bacteria.

I voluntarily seek services provided by Dream AcadeME and I attest that:
I promise to send my child to Dream AcadeME programs only when my child is NOT experiencing any symptom of illness such as severe/mucus cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, fever, chills, repeated shaking with chills, muscle pain, headache, sore throat, or colored excessive mucus coming from nasal passages. I promise that I will keep my child home until 24 hours AFTER symptoms reside.
Please do not send your child to any of our programs wearing a mask. In general public use, they are not protective against the spread of germs, especially the way children handle them, and they interfere with intellectual, social, and emotional learning.
I HAVE READ THIS RELEASE OF LIABILITY AND ASSUMPTION OF RISK AGREEMENT, FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS TERMS, UNDERSTAND THAT I HAVE GIVEN UP SUBSTANTIAL RIGHTS BY SIGNING IT, AND SIGN IF FREELY AND VOLUNTARILY WITHOUT ANY INDUCEMENT.
