PARENT/GUARDIAN E-MAIL ADDRESS (return to instructor)

Dear Parent:

In an attempt to keep you informed about the progress of your child, I am requesting that

you provide an email address so that I can communicate with you frequently andexpeditiously. During weekdays, I can respond to email messages within 24 hours ofreceipt. I cannot access my mailbox during weekends therefore there will be a delay in

responding to email messages sent on Saturday and Sunday. I believe that giving parentsimmediate notification of academic and behavioral concerns helps curtail such problems.

Therefore, the swiftness of electronic communication has a great advantage.

Please indicate below if it is OK to communicate with you concerning your child'sprogress via email:

YES, it is OK to communicate with me via email. (If you answered yes,please provide a personal email address that your child preferably

cannot access.)

My personal email address is as follows:

__________________________________@_______________.com

OR

Yes, I would prefer communication via the telephone._______________________________________________________
