Dear Mather Smith,
As Matt’s dad, we understand your concern over the news. Indeed, Matt is failing his Math and Biology subjects. Other than this, Matt has several absences on both classes which are handled Ms. Slade and Ms. Johnson. On three Math exams that Matt took, he only got the passing grade of 65%. Sad to say, he did not show up for the other two exams and, as such, he got a failing grade on both. In Biology, Matt only attended two of the five school days last week.
Matt has been reprimanded and sent to detention several times. My assistant left a message at your office’s answering machine, and also sent two letters addressed to your residence. Only by contacting you at work do I feel secure that you will receive the proper information on the situation. Matt’s poor performance requires him to enroll with summer school so that he can graduate together with his class. Kindly call me on my personal mobile number if you need me to answer any question.
Sincerely,
Valerie
