Dear Mr. Gore,
As my son’s final term before graduation draws to an end, I wanted to write and extend heartfelt thanks for the superb educational experience that your school has provided during my child’s twelve years of attendance. Enrolling my son in Scholars’ Hall was, undoubtedly, the wisest investment I ever made and certainly, the one that has yielded the greatest dividends.
Reflecting upon what makes Scholar’s Hall so exceptional, I could emphasize the many unique features of your school: its status as the singular nondenominational private school in the Waterloo region, its beautiful location, large well-lit classrooms that contain no more than 15 students in any one class, its course offerings at many different levels of study and, not least of all, its commitment to providing students with as much as a full month’s worth of additional instruction over the course of the school year.
However, it strikes me that Scholar’s Hall is much more than the sum of these remarkable features. In my experience, Scholars’ is a school with a heart, responding to students with empathy, kindness, encouragement, and respect. It is a school with a backbone, scrupulously, ensuring that any behaviour that could mar the academic experience, such as bullying, harassment or rudeness, is responded to promptly and with meaningful sanctions.
As a parent it is always tempting to claim sole responsibility for a child’s success; however, I recognize that Scholars’ Hall has played an invaluable role in cultivating the very best in my child.
