Parent/Guardian Informed Consent – Teacher Research
September 27, 2021As many families are aware, our teachers engage in a formal practice of closely examining their teaching practices, curriculum, and learning assignments to improve learning and outcomes for students. A description of our teachers’ self-study work (known as teacher inquiry) can be found here: Parent/Guardian Informed Consent.
Families are not required to reply or sign consent for their student’s participation as there will be no disruption to our typical education program.
If you DO NOT CONSENT to your student’s teacher using your student’s work samples (with all identifying information removed) in professional presentations, please sign and return the Parent/Guardian Informed Consent to your student’s teacher or the Main Office by Thursday, October 7, 2021. Signed forms may also be emailed to mainoffice@pky.ufl.edu. Paper copies of the Parent/Guardian Informed Consent will be distributed to all students Thursday, September 30, 2021.
If you elect at any time after October 7, 2021 to not permit teachers to use your student’s work (with all identifiers removed) please sign the attached document and return to your student’s teacher or the Main Office. If you have questions, please don’t hesitate to contact, Dr. Lynda Hayes, P.K. Yonge Director (lhayes@pky.ufl.edu).
Thank you for supporting our incredible teachers as they seek to improve learning for your student and supporting the mission of our school.
