How would you head a note from a teacher?

Question

I am designing stationery for a teacher in a bilingual elementary classroom. In order to send notes home to parents, would it be best for the stationery to say.....

Una carta de la maestra

Una nota de la maestra

Una nota de Srta. Jones

Del escritorio de Srta. Jones

¿Que piensan ustedes?

Answer 1

Noticias, commentarios, mensajes, carta breve

Nota is actually quite common:

Nota de la tutora

Breve comentario de la profesora/maestra

Well, if the student confused it with a boletín de calificaciones it might not make it home. Those things seem to get misplaced easily and dogs seem to enjoy eating them as much as homework. - 0074b507, Sep 18, 2011

Answer 2

How does Memorándum de Srta. Jones, para los padres de __.

---

Wordy perhaps, but should make the origin and purpose fairly clear...

---

I just don't know if memorandum in Spanish conveys the same thought as it does in English...perhaps others will chime in!

Answer 3

Opino que "Del escritorio de Srta. Jones" suena bien pero no lo sé de seguro.

Answer 4

I don't know about using nota. In a school environment that usually is associated with test scores and grades.

Noticias, commentarios, mensajes, carta breve or other words might be better.
