    FAQ Sheet for Senior Letters

    WHAT IS A SENIOR LETTER?

    Senior Letters are positive letters written to seniors. They are delivered to seniors at the Senior Letter Luncheon during
    the last week of school.

    WHAT KINDS OF THINGS CAN I WRITE ABOUT IN A SENIOR LETTER?

    There are many acceptable topics for senior letters. These include, but are not limited to

     congratulating the senior for graduating

     wishing the senior well in his/her next phase of life (college, military, career)

     remembering fond memories (childhood, school, social gatherings, etc…)

    This is not an appropriate time to bring up old grudges or get one last dig in at a person.

    WHEN DO SENIORS RECEIVE THEIR LETTERS?

    Seniors receive their letters AT the senior luncheon at the end of the year. Seniors who are not able to attend the
    luncheon can pick them up from Mr. Leach in room 213 the next morning. They will also be available for pick up AFTER
    graduation practice. Because we are still stuffing the folders right up until the last minute, they will not be ready until
    the luncheon, so seniors CANNOT pick them up early.

    WHEN IS THE SENIOR LUNCHEON?

    On an exam day, which is a ½ day of school. The exact date will be announced in early May.

    ***MANY seniors make the mistake of telling their bosses that they can be at work at noon since the school day is only
    half a day. DON’T do this, seniors. Plan on spending the time between 12:00 and 2:00 at the luncheon with your
    friends. This is your last hurrah! Wait to go to work at your regular time around 2:30 or 3:00.

    HOW DO I WRITE A SENIOR LETTER AND GET IT TO A STUDENT?

    Senior letters can be written on notebook paper, colored paper, stationary, cards, etc… Please place senior letters in
    envelopes. In the bottom left hand corner, please write the full name of the student to whom the letter is addressed. If
    a student is from another country, but has an American name, please tell us that as well. For example, write: Ye Sol
    “Jane” Lee. The more information you give us, the easier it is for us to make sure the letter gets to the right person. We
    also have several students with the same first and last name. Please include a middle initial if possible!
    FAQ Sheet for Senior Letters

    There will be a senior letter drop box at the front desk.

    WHAT IF SOMEBODY OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL (PARENTS, GRANDPARENTS, FAMILY FRIENDS, ETC…) WANTS
    TO SEND A LETTER?

     People who live locally can mail their letters or choose to bring their letters to the school and drop them off at
    the front desk.

     People who live farther away can mail their letters, or, if saving postage is a real concern, they can e-mail the
    letters to your parents, who can then print them off and drive them up to the school.

     DO NOT mail the letters directly to the school. We use a Post Office Box for senior letters. The address to use is

    North Gwinnett Senior Letters

    ATTN: Ken Leach

    P. O. Box 1629

    Suwanee, GA 30024

    Disregard ALL old numbers that you have. We open a new box for 3 months each year to save
    money!!

     Envelopes should contain the address in the regular location and the student’s full name, including middle
    name, birth name, and American name as applicable, in the bottom left hand corner.

    Return address of sender here. Stamp!

    North Gwinnett Senior Letters


    Attn: Ken Leach
    PO Box 1629
    Suwanee, GA 30024

    Full Student Name Here

    Example: Ye Sol “Jane” Lee  SO IMPORTANT!!!

    WHO READS THE SENIOR LETTERS?

    Senior letters are delivered to students unopened. The only time we open a letter is when the information on the
    outside does NOT allow us to determine who should receive the letter. In that case we open the letter to try to
    determine to whom to deliver it.

    Every year we have a least a dozen letters that we cannot deliver because we cannot figure out to whom they belong.
    One year we received a beautiful card. The mother addressed it, “Dearest Daughter, This card is beautiful, just like you.
    Love, Mom.” It was dropped off at the front office, so there wasn’t an address label or anything to give me a hint. With
    over 300 girls in the senior class, we simply could not figure it out.

    CAN PEOPLE SEND ITEMS OTHER THAN LETTERS?

    This is NOT advisable. If people want to send you money, please have them send it directly to your house. We make
    EVERY effort to deliver the right letters to the right people, and we are very successful at this, but I wouldn’t want
    something to accidentally happen to your money. Also, we are really only equipped to store and sort letters into our
    special class folders. If people want to send you large gifts or photo albums full of memories, please have them deliver
    those to your homes.

    WHEN I CAN BEGIN TURNING IN SENIOR LETTERS?


    FAQ Sheet for Senior Letters

    We will receive letters between the end of March and May 17 at either the school or the post office box. After that, we
    will need time to sort and organize them.

    WHAT IF SOMEBODY MISSED THE DEADLINE A ND STILL WANTS TO SEND A LETTER?


    th
    No letters will be accepted after May 17 via mail or school drop-off.
