Parent Feedback Sample Letter
A template for raising concerns with your child’s principal or local school board members.
As a parent, you are without question a valued partner in shaping your child’s experiences in school.

These letters offer language for reaching out to your child’s principal and your local school board members. Fill in the red text to make the letter more personal and to add anything else that’s important to you.
