Student/Parent Audio-Visual Equipment Usage Agreement

Center for Communication Technology students often undertake projects that require them to take pictures, shoot video, or record sound outside the classroom. In order to make this possible, we have equipment available for students to check out. This equipment includes but is not limited to: • digital video camcorders • tripods • digital still cameras • batteries & chargers • DSLR cameras • microphones and headphones The equipment is expensive, state-of-the-art technology that has been acquired through grants, fund-raisers, and district funds. We are proud to be able to offer this equipment for use to our students so that they may better prepare themselves for media-related careers. The care and usage of the equipment is of paramount importance, so that we can continue to offer this unique advantage to all of our students. Therefore, we ask that the student and parent carefully read and sign this agreement before we check out any equipment to the student. This signed agreement will remain valid throughout the current school year, unless terminated due to failure to comply with the following terms.

I, __, and my parent/guardian,__ __,both agree to the following terms and conditions of borrowing audio/visual equipment from CCT and Thomas Jefferson High School:__ __• I will demonstrate the utmost care and caution when borrowing any audio/visual equipment.__ __• While in my possession the borrowed equipment will remain with me, or will be stored safely in my home (I will not leave the equipment in my car, locker, or at a friend’s house etc.).__ __• I will not lend the equipment to a friend or family member for his or her private use.__ __• I will use the borrowed equipment only for the project that has been approved by my instructor.__ __• If the equipment is stolen I will file a police report immediately, and notify the instructor of the situation.__ __• If the equipment is lost I understand that I am responsible for the replacement cost of the equipment.__ __• If the equipment is damaged while in my possession I understand that I am responsible for the repair or replacement cost.__ __• I will not take any equipment home without checking it out personally from the instructor.__ __• I will return any borrowed equipment no later than 7:25 AM on the next school day after it was checked out.__ __• If I am unable to attend school when the equipment is due, I realize that it is still my responsibility to return the equipment on time, and will have a friend, sibling, or parent return it for me.__ __• I understand that any breech of this agreement will result in the termination of my borrowing privileges.__
