Zoom Consent Form

Dear Parent / Guardian,

With the suspension of face to face instruction due to Covid19, our Heartwood Learning Community teachers will be offering students instruction using Zoom. Zoom is a cloud-based video conferencing service you can use to virtually meet with others. It is a place where teachers and students can have discussions, share their learning and collaborate on projects. Please read the following for more information on Zoom’s privacy policy: https://zoom.us/privacy.

In order to ensure the privacy of all, teachers will:

use Zoom’s password feature
use Zoom’s waiting room feature
ensure that Zoom links are not posted publicly
ensure that they are present in the Zoom meeting with students at all times*

*if a mentor is running a Zoom meeting without the teacher present, the parent is assuming supervision responsibility*

Is expected that your child use Zoom properly following the guidelines below:

Mute their mic when not speaking
Think before they speak or write
Obtain permission before sharing their screen or posting any videos/photos

I give my child(ren) permission to access Zoom to meet with their teacher and classmates. I understand that these lessons may be recorded.*

Yes, I understand and agree to the use of Zoom
No, I don't agree to using Zoom

I give my child(ren) permission to access Zoom to meet with class mentors and understand that I, the parent/guardian, am responsible for supervising my child online while they are in these Zoom sessions.*

Yes, I understand and agree
No, I don't agree to these terms

We understand the privacy risks and management strategies as they have been shared with us.
