							TO PARENTS – INTRODUCTORY LETTER
TO: [Insert email addresses]

SUBJECT: The My Voice Student Survey at [school name]

Dear Parents/Guardians of [school name],

We are delighted to share with you that our students will participate in taking the
My Voice Student Survey on [insert date(s) of survey administration]. This survey
will take only 15 to 20 minutes of your child’s time and will not detract from regular
schoolwork. Based on over two decades of research, the My Voice Student Survey
measures student perceptions of 8 Conditions That Make a Difference – key factors
to your child’s academic, personal, and social success in school.

There is nothing you have to do for your child to participate; all surveys will be
conducted by school staff during normal school hours, and students’ responses will
remain anonymous – no names or other personally identifiable information will be
collected. This letter is simply to share the good news that your child’s input is
valued. For the best results, we would like every student in [insert grade/year range]
to complete the survey. However, if you do not want your child to participate, please
contact me prior to [insert date]. If you have any questions about the My
Voice Student Survey, please feel free to contact me at [telephone number/email
address]. Our students are eagerly looking forward to providing feedback that can
make a difference.

Sincerely,

[Principal/Headteacher]
