Dear Principal,

I am one of "the smart kids" who you have just come to recognize in the not-so-stressful International Baccalaureate Program (that is only seemingly un-stressful to the adults who have absolutely no clue how stressful it truly is partly because they are the ones causing such stress). Anyway, I was wondering if you have any word on the chemicals I need to complete my Extended Essay for Chemistry. It was due back in November and it is now March, but I would really like to complete it. I know your priorities lie with the football team, and I do appreciate you taking me out of class to attend an assembly for the young man who made it into some league, but if you could just find a bit of time to have my chemicals ordered that would be great.

Also, my classmates and I have had three different Chemistry teachers so far. We currently are in need of another one. Unfortunately, our substitute does not know Chemistry and our exam is only a few months away. I know the dance team needs you to restrict them some more and possibly even take away their dancing right, but I really would love getting my IB Diploma. There are many things that need to be addressed concerning us "smart kids", and forgive me but forcing us to spend time writing an essay titled "Write Right" is not a good start, especially since we should be writing correctly.

I apologize for taking up so much of your valuable time. You must be extremely busy dealing with the fourth pep rally we will have had this year. Learning must be overrated right? I hope to hear from you before graduation as I would love walking across that stage!

Sincerely,

Non IB Diploma Receiver
