Assumption of Risk

I am fully aware that attending SDG programs and being present in classes or on the premises carries the risk of COVID-19 transmission, which cannot be eliminated despite any efforts taken to avoid these risks.
-
In the event of an emergency as deemed by SDG staff, if the contacts provided cannot be reached, I hereby grant SDG permission and authority to arrange for the transport of my child to the nearest medical facility, and I agree to be responsible for any and all costs associated with such an event.
