An example of a short letter that was sent home with students to encourage them to attend a new after-school coding program.
This letter could be adapted for use with any program that needs to provide information to families. The document also includes a sign-up form which includes space for parent/guardian signature. This letter provides both an opportunity to share information about the new program as well as is a way to collect meeting date preferences from those who are interested.
