I certify that I am over 18 and agree to the following:

At the Sarah McLachlan School of Music (SoM), we believe in building a community where every individual feels safe and secure to be themselves and to explore who they are through the study of music. Each student must recognize a personal responsibility to learn and follow the SoM values at all times. Failure to follow these values may result in dismissal from our program.

Code of Conduct:
Respect the dignity and freedom of others
Respect the property of others
Be kind, cooperative and inclusive
Respect your surroundings
Resolve conflict in a calm and peaceful way
Respect everyone's right to be safe, heard, to contribute and participate

I will try my best to attend ALL of my SoM classes and be sure to call/text/email the front desk to let them know about any absences. I understand that if I have 3 or more unexcused absences I may be asked to attend a meeting with my instructor to discuss my commitment.

As the parent/legal guardian of my child (outlined on this form), I hereby grant to Sarah McLachlan School of Music and any employees, licensees, and assigns of Sarah McLachlan School of Music, for the purpose of advertising and promoting Sarah McLachlan School of Music, the right and permission to use and re-use, in whole or in part, my or my child's first name, voice, image and likeness, as well as any recording, music produced, soundtrack, artwork, film or footage in which my child's name, voice, image or likeness appear, modified in any way, without payment or notice to me. I agree that photographic and video images may be taken by SoM of my child participating in SoM activities during the course of their involvement in SoM and I hereby agree that such images may be used by SoM in SoM's sole discretion to advertise and promote SoM's programs and to raise awareness of SoM's programs.
