Dear Upper School Parents and Guardians,

If you wish to give your student permission to participate in Friday’s demonstration in downtown DC, please email us at [email-masked].  While the school is not sponsoring this event, we will excuse your student(s) from classes if you give explicit permission that they may attend. A few items to note:

Please note that your child will attend their first period class (8:00am – 8:45am) before gathering for the 9:00am departure.

Please note that your child is therefore excused absent for the remainder of the day and is not to return.  You are excusing your child from school for the balance of the day.

Please make sure you are aware of how your child is getting to and from the demonstration, and please establish some rules and advice for them to follow when in a large crowd.  Out of an abundance of caution do I suggest you have this conversation with them.

Finally, we ask that you email your permission no later than 3pm tomorrow (Thursday, April 19).  Many of you already have.

Thank you.

Best,

Michael Woods
