Subject: You Are an APS Rising Star!

Dear [Student Name] and Family,

I am delighted to recognize you as an Akron Public Schools Rising Star! The "Rising Star" designation celebrates students who achieve two important benchmarks:

1. Solid academic performance: A 2.5 to 2.99 GPA during this grading period.

2. Great consistency: Missing three days of school or less this year.

Every day that you attend school and complete the tasks assigned to you, moves you closer towards achieving the next level of excellence—Superstar level.

Please know that we are here to support you in reaching your highest potential. Keep pushing forward. We are incredibly proud of you.

To the parents, guardians, and families: Thank you for your continued partnership. Your support at home is important to your child’s success.

Sincerely,

Mary B. Outley                                              

Superintendent, Akron Public Schools
