Letter of Consent
Dear Parent or Guardian,
My name is Ms. Joy Agu. I am a teacher here at Central High School and am currently a candidate to receive a Specialist Degree in Curriculum and Instruction. To fulfill my degree requirement I must complete an Action Research Project, commonly referred to as an ARP. I have decided that my project will focus on the benefits of parental engagement in increasing student performance. To complete my project I am enlisting your help and the help of your student. If you consent then your family's involvement will last five months. Should you consent, in no way will your child's grades be affected by his or her participation and upon completion, and no real names will be used in my analysis. All information derived will be held in strict confidence. If you choose not to participate, in no way will your child's grades be negatively impacted.
The project will begin with your completing a simple survey with nineteen behavioral traits that you may or may not employ with your student at home and six possible obstacles that limit communication between you and your student's teachers. All you have to do is simply place a check mark next to those statements that apply and submit it, along with this letter of consent, electronically. There will be no judgment rendered for leaving a space blank; it is imperative that you complete the survey honestly.
Should you be asked to continue in the project then a letter will be sent home with your student providing instructions for the remaining five months. At the conclusion of the project (sometime in May) a dinner and guided Q & A will be hosted for all parents and their students in order to provide me with reflective feedback on the study. In completing this project my desire is to find effective methods for increasing student core academic achievement through increased parental engagement. I hope you will join me in finding solutions to a complex problem negatively impacting our students. At this time or at any time during the project should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me via email or at the number provided below. Again, thank you in advance for your consideration and I look forward to your prompt reply.
Sincerely,
Ms. Joy Agu
