All of the Radical Badges the Monarchs earn are based on the principles of  social justice which we define as equity and inclusion of all people.

Radical Monarch Expectations and Community Agreements
Families: We agree to...

Attendance:
Meet the mandatory 90% attendance requirement for all Radical Troop meetings which includes the Badge Awards Ceremony meeting.

Communicate all non emergency absences in advance, and understand that a radical badge will not be awarded if the 90% attendance requirement is not met. The Radical Monarch curriculum is designed to build and connect towards a Radical Badge awards ceremony, therefore attendance is essential.

Follow the attendance protocol, if attendance becomes a concern we agree to participate in the following steps:
1st absence: Parent/Guardian Check-In
2nd absence: Family Meeting to problem solve attendance issues
3rd absence: Dismissal from the program

Drop off Radical Monarch(s) on time for all Troop meetings.

Review the Radical Monarchs Troop meeting schedule in advance and be proactive about problem solving any Troop meeting conflicts in order to meet the attendance requirement.  Radical Troop Leaders understand that a commitment to attend all troop meetings sometimes requires sacrificing family commitments, athletics, and youth groups which is why we ask that you plan ahead and prioritize Radical Monarch troop meetings.

Respond within 48hrs to all Radical Monarch emails/texts in order to help the Radical Troop Leaders with scheduling dates for troop meetings and to be aware of  important information.

If I am a white ally parent/guardian I agree to participate in mandatory Radical Monarch ally development round tables held 3 times per year. The goal of this training is twofold: to explore what my role is as a Radical Monarch family, and to intentionally deepen my white ally best practices.

Monarchs: I agree to...
Brave Space: I promise to lean into my stretch zone and advocate for myself

One Monarch One Mic : Listen with my whole body while someone is talking

Take Space Make Space: If I talk often I will make space for others to share, if I listen often I will take space and share my thoughts with the troop.

Put Ups : Be generous with compliments/positive feedback

Have Fun : Be open to learning and trying new things

Wear & keep track of my Radical Monarch uniform (beret and vest)

Assumption of Risk, Release, Indemnity and Consent to Participate Agreement
During the course of The Radical Monarchs Program, or as may be applicable to your student, The Radical Monarchs may participate in athletic play, swimming, camping, overnight trips, and use of Radical Monarch equipment, or other on-site or off-site activities.  Participation in The Radical Monarchs is associated with inherent risks.

The risks associated with participation in The Radical Monarchs, may range from minor to severe injuries, illness, disease, disability, or death.  Inherent risks may be compounded by a Monarch’s failure to strictly follow safety guidelines or instructions.  Circumstances could require immediate medical attention.  In the event that a parent or guardian cannot be timely consulted during a medical emergency, I agree The Radical Monarchs its employees, agents, or representatives may authorize treatment by licensed medical, dental or emergency response professionals.  I agree to be financially responsible for such medical, dental or emergency care.  

For information I want to obtain regarding specific risks or activities, I agree to ask questions via email before signing this Agreement and permitting my child or ward to participate in The Radical Monarchs.

A participant’s failure to abide by The Radical Monarchs rules and rules associated with a specific activity, as well as other behavioral expectations, may result in a Radical Monarch being sent home. Should this be necessary, the parent or guardian will be responsible for any and all costs incurred.  In addition, the parent or guardian will be responsible for transporting the student back home.

In consideration of The Radical Monarchs permitting my child or ward to participate in the program I agree for myself and on behalf of my child or ward to:  (1) assume all of the risks of injury, loss, kidnapping, assault, child run-away, illness, disease, disability, disfigurement, or death of my child or ward arising from their participation and all related events or incidents; (2) release, waive, discharge, and covenant not to sue The Radical Monarchs and its board of trustees, officers, employees, agents, volunteers, chaperones, and representatives as to all losses, damages, rights, claims, demands, and liabilities arising out of or related to my child's or ward's participation and all related events or incidents; and (3) indemnify and hold harmless The Radical Monarchs and its trustees, officers, employees, agents, volunteers, chaperones and representatives from all claims, actions, suits, costs, expenses, attorney's' fees, damages, and liabilities as a direct or indirect consequence of participation by my child or ward.  

Both parents and legal guardians must sign this Agreement before a student may participate.  If only one parent/guardian is living or has sole legal custody, then only that person needs to sign.  The signing parent or guardian, however, shall notify the noncustodial parent or guardian of the contents of this Agreement before signing and submitting it.  Any failure of both parents and legal guardians to sign this Agreement shall nonetheless bind my child to its terms and conditions.
Please indicate whether one or more of the child's parents/guardians are white. *
