Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Indiana

My wife and I are trying to admit my 5yr old to kindergarden in a Christian School but before we can register him we must sign a "Harmless Clause" agreement that states:
I give permission for my child to take part in all school activities including sports programs and school sponsored trips away from the school premises. I absolve the school from all liability in the event my child is injured at school or during any school activity......
Then, the second peice to this is in the above where the school states..................
This notice does not absolve a daycare ministry from liability for injury to a child while the child is at the day care ministry, if the cause of the injury is due to negligencer or wrongdoing on the part of the daycare ministry and or employees of the daycare ministry.
This verbage is very confusing to us. The day care personel says that while these clauses relieve them of being sued, thier insurance would pay converages upon investigation of the situation. We do not want to enroll our child and pay such a large amount of money to have him in a private school where they deny our child his basic rights and our rights as parents to sue if the school is negligent. We really need your help.

You should have a local attorney review the agreement in its entirety along with any brochures and pamphlets that you have about the school.
