Email Etiquette Reminders

Here are some tips when it comes to emailing your teachers. These tips may help you get a quicker response and will make your teachers happy!

1. Include your full name and period.  

     Example: Good morning, Mrs. Hegsted. This is Madix Volk from your 1st period class. I have a question about...

2.  Use correct grammar and punctuation. Your email should not look like a text!

3. Be clear about your question, concern, or reminder.  

     If it's a question: I have a question about...

     If it's a concern or other information: I'm concerned about...

     If you are emailing about a late or revised assignment you want your teacher to grade, remember to give it some time before sending an email. I think a week is an appropriate amount of time to then email your teacher.

4. End with some sort of thank you message and your name.
