Dear parent/guardian,

Your son/daughter will be part of a new programme at school about AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases. He/she will learn important information and skills to help prevent him/her from becoming sick with these serious diseases. For example,

[add here a brief description of the programme]

It is important/or you to help your son/daughter with his/her learning. You can do this by:

· Asking your child what he/she learned at school about AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases.
· Reviewing activities that have been done at school with your child (or activities that will be sent home with your child).
· Discussing how you feel about these serious diseases.
· Listening carefully and calmly when he/she wants to talk about the subject.

Thank you for your help.

Yours sincerely,

(Name of school director, teacher, or secretary of school board)
