Subject: Parental Notification and Consent Required for All Actions Concerning My Child

Dear [Principal’s Name],

I am writing to formally notify the school of my parental rights and to place clear boundaries regarding any interaction involving my child, [Child’s Full Name], who is currently enrolled in [Grade/Class] at [School Name].

Given the alarming rise in retaliatory practices, weaponization of CPS, and lack of proper communication with families, I am exercising my full legal rights as a parent to protect my child and ensure due process is followed in all matters.

Please be advised of the following:

1. No interviews, questioning, or evaluations (psychological, disciplinary, or medical) may be conducted with my child without my written and informed consent.
2. If any outside agency—including Child Protective Services, law enforcement, or school district staff—requests to speak with or assess my child, I must be notified immediately and given the opportunity to be physically present.
3. My child has been instructed to request to call me immediately if approached by any authority figure regarding investigations, discipline, or any situation outside routine academic activities.
4. This letter serves as a formal revocation of implied consent. Any action taken without my prior written authorization will be considered a violation of my parental rights, and I will pursue all legal remedies available.
5. I am requesting written confirmation that this letter has been placed in my child’s permanent file and that all relevant staff—including teachers, counselors, and administration—are informed of its contents.

I trust you understand the seriousness of these matters and that your staff will act with professionalism, transparency, and respect toward both my child and my rights as a parent.

Please confirm receipt of this letter in writing. Thank you for your attention.

Sincerely,
[Your Name]
Parent of [Child’s Full Name]
[Your Signature, if printed]
