Mr. Joe Brown

History Instructor and Basketball Coach

Roosevelt High School

Johnstown, CO 80534

Dear Mr. Brown,

As we have discussed many of times before I plan to go to college and continue to get a better education. I would appreciate it greatly if you would write a recommendation letter for me so that I could receive the scholarships that I plan to apply for. Because I have taken two of your courses in my high school career here at Roosevelt, you know the kind of work ethic I obtain, as well as my qualities as a person, and my potential to excel after high school.

As my instructor for geography and teachers aid classes, you are aware of my grades, my work behavior, and my study habits. Also by being my basketball coach you are aware of my will and determination to achieve my goals. I am confident that you have a good sense to know if I can succeed at the college level. I am asking for your recommendation because I will be applying for multiple scholarships here in the near future. I have recently been accepted to Colorado State University Pueblo, Adams State College, and the University of Northern Colorado.

Thank you for your help, I really appreciate you taking the time to write this letter for me.

Yours sincerely,

Sam Hardy
