Info

Parent or Guardian Liability Release Form I acknowledge that I have read the explanatory letter about the Sea King Capstone and have received the booklet describing and outlining due dates for the different phases of the capstone. I understand the consequences of missing deadlines and assignments. I also understand that my senior will select the topic and capstone he/she wishes to complete, and I have reviewed this topic with my student as summarized on the reverse of this form. In the event that my senior selects a capstone that includes expenditure, I realize that this is the student’s choice, not a requirement. I further understand that if my senior undertakes a capstone by his or her choice in which risk is involved, I will not hold the school or district responsible for injury. _____________________________________ Parent/Guardian Signature _____________________ Date Integrity Commitment Honesty and integrity are important character traits we hope to reinforce throughout the culminating capstone. While we fervently hope we will not have to perform administrative consequences, we want to be very clear about the consequences of cheating on the culminating capstone. We define cheating as: • Plagiarizing (claiming work is yours that is not) any part of the culminating capstone, particularly the research paper. • Lying about or exaggerating the quality and/or quantity of the time spent working on the product phase; inventing or exaggerating a mentor relationship. If any of these should occur, you would be removing yourself from eligibility to give your senior board presentation, because unethical behavior has severe consequences to an organization and to self. By doing this, you would also be removing yourself from commencement exercises-you would not walk at graduation. You may have the opportunity to present your new, original work at a post-commencement board. Provided you pass that board, and satisfy the other graduation requirements, you would still earn your diploma. I have also reviewed the above Integrity Commitment with my student and both parties fully understand the consequences of cheating. We commit to honesty and integrity regarding the whole Sea King Capstone experience. ____________________________ ____________________________ _________ Parent/Guardian Name Parent/Guardian Signature Date ____________________________ ____________________________ _________ Student Name Student Signature Date 75
