Letter

To the parents/guardians of Jake Miller,

We regret to inform you that Jake was sent to the principals office again today; this is the third time in the past two weeks. On behalf of his teachers, we would like to call a team meeting with you to work something out. He’s a smart kid when he actually applies himself to the material covered in class. However, it is always a challenge to get him to participate and interact with the other students. He seems very agitated all the time, and has most recently shown oppositional defiant behavior such as talking back to teachers, skipping classes, and destroying school property. We understand that your family has just suffered a great loss, but this behavior will not be tolerated. Many of his teachers are worried about Jake, his grades have slipped dramatically since the incident and he seems to be much more detached than he used to be. We highly recommend seeking professional help for both your benefit and his. We look forward to speaking with you soon.

Sincerely,

Martha Andrews. Principal of WMS

Eric Clarke Director of ELA

Lucy Williams Director of Mathematics

Ellen Borden Director of Sciences
