Dear Parent:

High school students are often influenced by one another at least as much as they are influenced by parents and teachers. Accordingly, with the permission of the school authorities, we are studying the informal status systems in your child’s school—as well as in a number of other schools.

As part of this study we would like to interview your child. This interviewing will be voluntary and will be done during lunch and other times that would not interfere with your child’s schoolwork.

All information gathered will be kept strictly confidential. In any reports that are produced, neither the actual names of the students nor the names of the schools will be used.

We would appreciate you giving your permission for your child to participate in this study by signing the statement below. Thanks for your cooperation.

Sincerely,

Murray Milner, Jr.

Professor

I give my permission for my child to participate in the study described above.
