New Race/Ethnicity Data Collection
Dear Springwoods Parent/Guardian:
Your child was recently given a form for you to fill out and return that asks for your child’s race and ethnicity. The collection of this information is mandated by the federal government, which has revised the criteria of these data. A letter of explanation was included with the form but more information can be found on the PWCS Web site at: http://www.pwcs.edu/news2/announcements/351-federalethnicityreporting.html.
Please complete parts A and B of the form, sign and date it at the bottom, and return it to your homeroom class by Friday, March 19th.
As called for in the new federal requirements, if the forms are not completed by parents/guardians, then a staff member will observe and select racial and ethnic categories on the student’s behalf. These data are being collected for students in grades PK-8 right away, since we will begin scheduling elementary and middle school students for the 2010-11 school year in April.
Thank you for your assistance in helping us collect this information.
