Dear Mrs. Phipps,

I wanted to let you know how excited I am for the start of the 2014-2015 school

year. My son, Oliver, is glad to be in your class, as you were the teacher he

wanted. Oliver is an articulate child who loves to read and has always got really

good grades. He is eager to help and is always on the ball with his school work.

While Oliver is an excellent student, he does have a few challenges that I felt

you should know about. First, he was adopted back in 2014 by my husband and

I. While this has helped him to learn and grow, it also has scared him. There is a

slight cognitive delay that we have to deal with, and at times this delay can be

difficult.

He will often drop to the floor in tears if the work is too challenging or if he

feels frustration. It is not uncommon for him to be in the fetal position and

rocking while throwing these temper tantrums. We manage Oliver’s behaviors

with medication through his psychiatrist and medical doctor. While I know this

sounds bad, for the most part Oliver is simply delightful. His little mind just

couldn’t handle the abuse he suffered and parts of it just shut down when faced

with adversity.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know. I want you to know

that we will work with you and support you 100% in your classroom. It may be

necessary to send home an assignment book every night so that we are both on

the same page. Other teachers have done this, in the past, and it seems to work

out great. I look forward to working with you and making this year the best

school year ever!

Sincerely,

Marcia Fox
