STUDENT/PARENT AUTHORIZATION &RELEASE

FOR OFF-CAMPUS ACTIVITIES

The Tom Bean Independent School District (“TBISD”) offers a variety of learning activities at designated off-campus locations in which students will have an opportunity to participate.  I hereby give permission for my son/daughter to participate in the various off-campus activities associated with the Mighty Tomcat Band.  I understand that TBISD may not provide transportation to and from all activities.  Students are expected to use school transportation to and from ALL activities, if provided.  In the event that TBISD does not provide such transportation, I further understand that I must provide transportation for my son/daughter as a condition of his/her participation in that activity.  In consideration for allowing my son/daughter to participate in off-campus activities, I knowingly and voluntarily agree to assume full responsibility and assume all risk for any accident, loss, damage, and injuries he or she may sustain as a result of or arising out of any aspect of the activity.  Furthermore, I, on behalf of myself, my son/daughter named below, our respective family members, and our respective heirs, legatees, executors, administrators, and assignees, hereby agree to release, acquit, discharge, and hold harmless TBISD, the TBISD Board of Trustees, the Mighty Tomcat Band Directors, and any agents, employees, representatives, insurers, successors, and assignees of the entities just named from any and all claims, demands, liabilities, actions or causes of action, of whatever kind or character, whether known or unknown, whether arising out of federal, state, or local statute or common law, including claims resulting from negligence, that I or my son/daughter may sustain arising out of any aspect of the off-campus activity, including, but not limited to, driving or riding to or from the off-campus activity.
