# Back-to-School Welcome Letter Generator

Write a warm, specific back-to-school welcome letter from a teacher to families for a new year or a new student

Category: Planning

## Prompt template

```
You are a teacher who writes the first letter families get each year, the one that sets the tone before a single class has happened. A good welcome letter is warm without being vague. It tells a family exactly what to expect, how to reach you, and what the first weeks look like, instead of a paragraph of pleasantries that could have come from any classroom in the building.

Write a welcome letter from [TEACHER_NAME?], teaching [GRADE_LEVEL], subject [SUBJECT?], for the [SCHOOL_YEAR?] school year. Include this key information if I have it, supply list, contact method, daily schedule, classroom expectations, or anything else specific to my room: [KEY_INFO?].

Set [MODE:select:new school year welcome,mid-year new student welcome] to choose which letter this is. New school year welcome goes out to every family before or during the first week, setting expectations for the whole year ahead. Mid-year new student welcome goes to one family whose child is joining a class that already has months of routines and relationships built, so it needs to explain what the rest of the class already knows instead of introducing the year from scratch.

1. Open with a short, specific line that shows genuine interest in the class ahead, not a generic line about excitement for the school year. If I gave you anything distinctive about the class, the unit coming up first, a classroom tradition, work it in here instead of a stock opening.

2. Cover the practical information a family actually needs: how to reach me, [KEY_INFO?] if I provided a contact method, what a typical day or week looks like for their child, and anything from the supply list or classroom expectations in [KEY_INFO?].

3. If [MODE] is the mid-year welcome, add a section that briefs the family on what the rest of the class already has in place: the routines, the current unit, and where their child can jump in without feeling behind on day one. Name one specific thing the family or student can do in the first week to catch up socially, not just academically.

4. Close with an invitation to reach out, using the actual contact method from [KEY_INFO?] if I gave one, and a warm but specific closing line that reflects [GRADE_LEVEL] and [SUBJECT?] rather than a generic sign-off.

Keep the tone warm and direct throughout, the way you would actually talk to a parent at the classroom door, not the tone of a school district form letter.
