Letters of Recommendation for College Applications
|

If you
need a CLHS teacher to write you a letter of recommendation for one or more of your college applications, please make sure you are doing the following;
-
Have an in-person conversation with that teacher to ask if they are able to write a letter for you.
-
Email that teacher and attach a copy of your Brag Sheet (be sure to thank them as well!)
-
Add that teacher as a 'recommender' in your Naviance account as this is where they will upload the actual letter.
*Please do not assume that a teacher will write you a letter if you have not completed these three steps!

Invite your child's friends for dinner. It helps to meet kids that your child is hanging out with. It shows you're making an effort to get to know their friends. When kids see how their friends act with their parents, they can get a better sense of those friends.
