Good day to you! This letter serves as a recommendation letter for Miss Marjorie Honeycutt as she seeks to become part of your prestigious accelarated program at Duke University.
Miss Honeycutt has been an exemplary student in high school. She is a gifted writer and essayist as well. I have taught at Lamierda High School for the Arts for 18 years and I am proud to say that Miss Honeycutt is a rare gem, a student that stands out once every decade from a sea of hundreds, from students already pre-selected by a discerning academic board.
Her academic performance is excellent which creates a balance for her other extracurricular talents as an athlete. For that reason, I am proud to recommend her to be part of your institution as she is well-adjusted and yet thrives impeccably under pressure.
