Advocates in Action: Emailing the School Board

Writing a letter to the School Board Members and the Superintendent may seem like a small effort, especially when they do not reply. But, it definitely is no small effort! It’s HUGE! Every time you write a letter or email it becomes public record. It is a way we can say “look at all these people who cared enough to spend their valuable time writing to you about this very important issue!” Sometimes, your letters are even read aloud at a board meeting. So please take the time to write about what is important to you and your relationship to the Forest Hills School District. Your efforts will NOT go unnoticed.
Help Us Keep Track!
Message Advocate FHSD on Facebook, or copy us on your email advocatefhsd@gmail.com. Invite your friends! Share what you’ve sent, and let’s showcase support for our schools. Channel your feelings and opinions into action! It’s important to show where you stand as a community member on these topics.
Writing Tips
FOCUSED: Keep emails focused and on one topic. It’s better to send separate emails per issue than trying to address all the issues in one.
RELATABLE AND DIRECT: Consider including some information that includes who you are, your relationship to FHSD, your connection to the issue, and what you’d like to see from the board.
COPY ALL: Make sure to send to all the board members and the superintendent. It is important for everyone to hear your message.
