Fayette Classical Christian School

In making application for my child, I am expressing my intent to have my child complete the school year at Fayette Classical Christian School. Furthermore:

1. I have read and am committed to the stated mission of the school and its philosophy of education, and I pledge my whole-hearted support to the programs and policies of Fayette Classical Christian School as promulgated in the most current Parent/Student Handbook. I understand that the faculty and administration will seek to lead each student into a covenant relationship with Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior and will instruct children to believe and obey the Holy Scriptures in accordance with the Fayette Classical Christian School Statement of Faith.
2. I understand that the administration will take all responsibility for academic placement according to an assessment by Fayette Classical Christian School. Other generally accepted educational standards might also be considered.
3. I agree to assume the responsibility for my child's education by nurturing habits of punctuality, thoroughness, neatness, honesty, resourcefulness, and independent reading and study; supervising homework; and working in cooperation with the teachers.
4. I acknowledge our God-given responsibility to discipline our children. When informed by the staff of behavioral infractions, I will properly discipline my child with the goal of ensuring that the infraction does not occur again.
5. I will handle all grievances in accordance with the principles outlined in the eighteenth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew. I will deal with the situation at its source, first speaking privately with the particular teacher or appropriate school staff member. If the issue remains unresolved, I will speak to the appropriate administrator. If satisfaction is still not realized, I will bring the matter to the Board's attention by writing a letter through the Headmaster.
6. I promise to fulfill my financial obligations to Fayette Classical Christian School. I have read, understand, and assent to the Financial Agreement Policy. I am responsible for the timely payment of all my child's tuition and fees and costs assessed for damage to books or school property by my child.
7. My child has permission to take part in all school activities including field trips, athletic events, and pictures taken for promotional use. I understand that neither Fayette Classical Christian School nor Trinity Reformed Church Muldoon are responsible for loss, damage, illness, or injury to person or property as a result of participation in Fayette Classical Christian School or its activities. I hereby release and discharge Fayette Classical Christian School and Trinity Reformed Church Muldoon and their employees, agents, and volunteers from any and all claims for injury, illness, death, loss, or damage as a result of my child's enrollment and participation.
8. If my child needs medical or surgical services requiring my consent and I cannot be reached, I hereby authorize the Headmaster or his designee to furnish such written or oral authorization as may be required. I release the Headmaster or his designee and Fayette Classical Christian School from any liability that might arise from the requesting of such services.
9. I understand that my child may not be admitted to class on the first day of school unless all proper forms are on file at Fayette Classical Christian School.
10. I agree to support the school's mission, policies, and guidelines. I understand that the school reserves the right to dismiss any student who does not respect its spiritual standards or does not cooperate with the educational process, or whose parents fail to do likewise.
11. Should the time ever come that I can no longer endorse this Statement of Agreement and Commitment, I will discreetly and politely withdraw my child from Fayette Classical Christian School by written notice to the Headmaster.
12. Any claim or dispute arising from or related to this agreement shall be settled by mediation and, if necessary, legally binding arbitration, in accordance with the Rules of Procedure for Christian Conciliation of the Institute for Christian Conciliation™. The parties understand that these methods shall be the sole remedy of any controversy or claim arising out of this agreement and expressly waive their right to file a lawsuit in any civil court against one another for such disputes, except to enforce an arbitration decision.
