Part A: Agreement to Participate
Agreement to Participate
When the U.S. Congress created the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program, it established rules for who is
eligible to apply and how those applications should be handled. Congress also required that an evaluation
be conducted to study the Program and students’ experiences before, during, and after being part of the
Program. This form is your agreement that you understand these important requirements for the Program.
In submitting this application, I agree to the following for each child named below:
To be eligible for participation in the D.C. Opportunity Scholarship Program, I must live in the District of Columbia
and my annual household income must be below certain specified amounts. I certify that I am now a resident of the
District of Columbia and will be for the 2012-13 school year.

•

I understand that, if eligible, my child’s name will be placed in a lottery for a scholarship. I also understand my
child(ren) may or may not receive a scholarship under this Program.

•

I understand that the Trust must keep copies of all documents submitted during the application process to ensure
that families are eligible. The Trust will keep this data strictly confidential.

•

I understand that the Trust will have access to my child’s report cards while my child is participating in this program.
This information will be held strictly confidential and will not be shared with anyone but designated Trust staff.

•

I understand that my child and I are required to participate in all aspects of the evaluation, including the annual
testing of my child, filling out annual surveys, and allowing records to be collected from my child’s school. If my child
and I do not participate in these evaluation activities, my child will not be eligible for a scholarship in any year.

•

I consent to the disclosure of information about my child(ren) and me contained in this application to the U.S.
Department of Education and its contractor(s) for the purposes of evaluating this program. I understand that the
Department and its contractors will not release to anyone or any organization personally identifiable information in
this application, except as required by law.
