TEACHER:

Thank you for agreeing to write a recommendation for this student.

We hope that the information provided by the student on the other side of this form will help you in writing your recommendation.

In most cases, teachers use their computers to write a single letter for each student, although some choose to personalize letters by institution.

 

Please remember that it is MKHS policy that all letters printed on MKHS letterhead stationery must be approved by Mr. George Nunez, Principal before it can be mailed or given to the recipient.

SENIOR:

College and scholarship applications may ask for a recommendation from one or more teachers.

To write effective recommendations, teachers benefit from having information from you

Please complete this form – thinking before you write and responding honestly, thoughtfully, and specifically.

Use extra paper if necessary.

Teachers vary in how much advance notice they want, but we ask that you ask for a recommendation and give the teacher this completed Information Sheet at least 2 weeks before the earliest deadline for which you need a teacher recommendation.
