Letter to Parents and Families
Here's how!
This is a letter to parents about an active transportation project to make it safer for students to walk or bike to school. The letter states the problem, gives a solution, shows parents the benefits, and tells them how they can get involved. The end of the letter is a "call to action" to have them sign up for updates or learn how they can support a healthier school.
You can use this format to reach out to parents, families, and community members about your issue!
