How do I start a thank you letter to the principle for a teacher?

Question

We are moving. Teacher is a sub for teacher out on maternity leave. She would like a permanent position. She said a letter might help. She is really great.

Answer 1

First of all, write to the PRINCIPAL ("the Principal is your

PAL), not principle.  Let the principal know what a good job the teacher did with your child, but keep in mind that there may be seniority or union issues which would prevent the sub. from getting the position.

Answer 2

dear ____________________________

my daughter/son really enjoyed having _______________ as a teacher. she/he says she/he cant wait to have her again

Answer 3

"I want to let you know how much my daughter really enjoyed (teacher's name)."

Edit:  Don't write it hoping the sub takes over and the other teacher gets the can.  This will show through in your letter easily and will be disregarded.  Write it strictly to talk about how great the sub is.

Answer 4

Chances are at the end of the year there is going to be a few openings at the school for teachers that are retiring, transferring, or taking time off.  If you really feel that this is a great teacher then you should definitely write a letter.  Simply start Dear ____, I feel that _____ has done an excellent job filling in for ____.  Go on to give all of the reasons that you feel that way.  Do a spell check, but do not stress to much about how it is worded.  What counts is that you took the time to write it and that you are concerned about what goes on at your child's school.

Answer 5

start by praising the school etc first that will put principle in a good mood and he/she will want to share that with the board etc which of course then will also have this praise for the teacher in the letter that you are wanting to draw attention to.

Answer 6

You out of luck. You wont get her a teaching job unless the teacher thats on maternity leaves my advice is just dont write a letter. Suggest to the princlipe that if your regular teacher is quiting you would like the sub teacher perminitly and so does she.
