Dear Sir:
Pursuant to the provisions of chapter 167.031 (RSMo), we have elected to educate our xxxxxth grade son/daughter, Joseph/Janice at home.
Please forward all records that you have accumulated on our son/daughter to the above address. Include all health records, the latest standardized test results, and all other evaluations, records and reports presently in your files.
We realize that you have statutory responsibility for the investigation of cases of suspected truancy regarding public school students. Therefore, this letter is being sent to allow you to relinquish that responsibility from the public school system.
It must be pointed out, however, that this letter should not be construed to be a registration, which is an option contained in chapter 167.042 (RSMo).
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
Respectfully,
John and Jane Doe
