Dr. A. J. Stephens
Superintendent
Independent School District
City, State 12345
Dear Dr. Stephens:
Please consider me
as an applicant for the high school language arts opening currently
being advertised by Independent School District.
I recently learned of your teaching opening from the Career
Services Office at Central State University where I will earn my
bachelor’s degree in May of this year with a major in Secondary
Education-English and a minor in journalism and mass communication.
I am particularly interested in your advertised opening because
of the specific teaching responsibilities and the opportunity to advise
the student magazine and work with other student publications.
As the enclosed
resume indicates, I am completing a full semester as a student teacher
in Adams Middle School working with a diverse student population in
grades nine through twelve. In
addition to my classroom experiences teaching British Literature,
Twentieth Century American Authors, and basic English, I volunteer to
work individually and in small groups with the school’s newspaper
staff. I have also had the
opportunity to work with a team which is developing a new approach to
teaching reading to students with behavioral disorders.
As your advertisement
instructs, I have completed the school district’s application on the
World Wide Web and am currently arranging for Central State
University’s Registrar’s Office to submit my transcripts to you.
My letters of recommendation are being sent from the Career
Services office. I would
welcome the opportunity to interview with your selection team and may be
reached at 570-893-0000 or anne_smith@aol.com.
Thank you for your
time and consideration. I
look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Sincerely,
(Written Signature)
Anne Smith
Enclosure
