Parent AUP

Dear parents, I cannot wait for the upcoming year with your student! We are going to get a lot of learning done this year but also have a lot of fun in my classroom. I have sent home an AUP for you and your child to read over and both sign. It just explains the basic rules in my class and how we will avoid some everyday conflicts and overall make everyone’s classroom experience better. I highly suggest doing this in your own home! It is such a good experience for the students to read and know the rules beforehand so that way not only I can hold them accountable, but they can also hold themselves accountable. On the first day we will also think of rules to come up with together that we see fitting for our classroom. I want these students to succeed not only academically but in their characters. I have found doing an AUP helps so much because when signing it, makes it like a contract between me and the student and their peers as well. Having one at home could be so much fun, you can make it your own and add any rules the two of you see fit and hold each other accountable for those rules! I will include a template for an AUP but feel free to make your own or jazz up the template to your liking! Nonetheless this is going to be an amazing school year and I cannot wait to have your kiddo in class,

Miss Taylor
