Dear Ms. X,

I am the principal of the school, and I am writing to express my thanks for your ongoing support for the students and the teachers at my school.

As the only public school in the area, we are hard-pressed to serve the growing needs of our community. In our area, we have a high homeless population and students who have the ability but not the opportunity to succeed.

The influx of student teachers and the new science curriculum has made a difference to our community members. Our parents have begun to see a change in their children, and I see a change in our in-service teachers in their ability and their engagement. In addition, our students' test scores have risen from 25% proficient to 49% proficient for our 5th graders in less than two years.

I have met with the teachers, the superintendent, and the PTA, and we are in agreement that we would like to discuss expanding the project's reach and also explore technology and/or engineering as a possible focus.

We are very excited about what has happened and hope we can continue this important work, which is clearly having an impact on our community.

Sincerely,

Principal
