[Letter from Mrs. Robertson]:

Mr. and Mrs. Dullaghan
 
Dear Parents,
     Due to the variance in reading levels of first grade children, the Accelerated Reader program has been modified to better meet the needs of our students.  Children must be able to read an Accelerated Reader book and answer questions on the computer independently.  The purpose of this program for first graders is to enrich and challenge those students reading above grade level.  Because not all first graders will be participating in this program, students will not be purchasing items from the Accelerated Reader store.
     Your child is now successfully reading and comprehending at a level 18.  He/she is now eligible to participate in the Accelerated Reader program.  This is an optional program and we must have your signature in order for your child to participate.  Please sign and return the bottom portion of this letter to your child's teacher.
 
Sincerely,
First Grade Teachers
J.C. Magill Elementary
 
niknotes:  Yea for Jack!  I hope he'll like it.  I didn't really understand the part about an Accelerated Reader store.  Oh, well, I'm signing the permission slip anyway.
