Notification letter to parent for a school activity

Notification Letters to Parents for Various Situations

Letters Kate

Schools and parents communicate frequently in relation to the overall wellbeing of a child. In order to keep parents updated about school affairs, schools issue notices to parents for any events, developments, changes in school, or anything that affects students. There are many situations where a notification letter may be issued to parents, including:

  • Viral infections
  • Health awareness
  • School activities such as plays, events, debates, competitions, sports or ceremonies
  • Academic developments
  • Change in administration
  • School security
  • School uniforms
  • School Trips
  • School holidays

While the above notifications are issued to all students, some notifications may even be issued to parents of particular students. Here are a few examples of why such notifications may be issued:

  • Misconduct in school
  • Fighting in school
  • Late arrival to school
  • Poor academic performance
  • Disciplinary action
  • Special circumstances such as health or injury

4: Ringworm notice to parents

Dear parent,

Your child seems to have been infected with ringworm. His teacher noticed a circular worm on his arm and asked the school nurse to confirm. Ringworms are contagious and can spread through soil, human-to-human contact, pets, or touching things that have fungal residue from the ringworm. Please make sure your daughter receives proper treatment for ringworm for her own health and a healthy environment at the school.

We wish her good health.

Sincerely,

Vice Principal
