Parental Permission Form


I, _____________________________, grant permission for my daughter Christy to participate, if needed, in the student focus group sponsored by the Mayflower County School System on Thursday, October 25, 2001 from 12:30 p.m. to 1:15 p.m. I understand that the focus group will take place during the school day and on the school grounds.

I am aware that the purpose of the student focus group is to get the opinions of high school, middle school, and elementary school students about school climate and school safety, and that these opinions will be included in a report to the Mayflower County School Board on December 3.

I understand that a school counselor will guide the focus groups.

I am aware that the session will be tape recorded for analysis only. I understand that my child's name will not appear in the written report.
