各位老师同学家长好!最近收到学校发来的Waivers Of Claims 免责条款要我们签字同意,原文如下:
Participating in School Activities may present risks associated with, for example, sports or travel. *** School, its past, current, and future officers, directors, employees, volunteers, and representatives – hereafter referred to as "The School" – shall not be held responsible for any injury, loss, or damage sustained by any person while participating in sports, travel, or any other school activity – hereafter referred to as “School Activity” – which might be caused by an accident, Act of God, or behavior which could be construed as negligence on the part of a student, a third party, or The School.
In recognition of the inherent risks of the activity in which I or my child will engage, I/we confirm that I/our child, am/is physically and mentally capable of participating in the School Activity and/or using equipment. I/we participate in School Activities willingly and voluntarily and I/we assume full responsibility for personal injury, accidents or illness, or death, and for any expenses as a result of thereof. In consideration of my/my child’s participation in any School Activity, I acknowledge that I am aware of the possible risks, dangers, and hazards associated with participation in the School Activity, including the possible risk of severe or fatal injury to me/my child or others. These risks include but are not limited to:
• Risks associated with travel to and from location(s) of the School Activity, including transportation provided by The School or by commercial, private and/or public motor vehicles.
• Illness or bodily injury, emotional and mental distress or trauma, or death incurred while participating in the School Activity.
I/we hereby authorize any medical treatment deemed necessary in the event of an injury or illness while participating in a School Activity.
I/we either have appropriate insurance or, in its absence, agree to pay the totality of the costs of rescue and/or medical services that may be incurred during my/our child’s participation in the School Activity.
I/we accept and assume the risks in giving consent for the undersigned to participate in School Activities.
I/we understand that the teachers and other adults involved in the School Activity will exercise due caution and care and that if a misfortune or accident occurs, it will be addressed and managed promptly and responsibly.
我感觉这份条款有问题,请问要签吗?

最佳回答达蒙爸爸 大连 家长也曾纠结过。
合同大概都有类似的免责条款,建议请专业的律师给出意见,一般比较难于为家长修改。家长的选择只有签,或者放弃。
建议做必要性评估:
1、学校整体上是否是自己梦想的学校;
2、学校的强势项目和孩子的特长是否匹配,是否不存在孩子不可接受的问题;
3、如果是走读学校,还要考虑孩子与寄宿家庭是否匹配;
4、学校的文化是否能够很好的响应、支持家长和孩子正常诉求。
如果以上的答案是肯定的,就不要轻易选择放弃,建议做慎重的评估,再做决定。
当然,评估之后,家长感觉签了合同还是不舒服,甚至寝食难安,那就果断放弃!
希望能对你有所启发!
