Writing a letter to the Principle

**Beefy187** · 04-09-2008, 02:02

The circumstances was pretty extreme.

The story I heard said that the two students prepared a key to the room which had the tests in it. They opened the door but they got caught. Although this is not confirmed by this girls.

If that story is true then it means that they had clear intention of stealing the exam. So the consequences should be pretty high. As Pever said, first reaction of the school was instant failure of the exam and suspencion. I am not sure why they changed to expell but I can see why.

However unlike the other girl that Pever mentioned (the girl who throw a bible) who was constantly in trouble for violence and other stuff, the girl/ girls who got expelled this time are hard working A standerd students who havnt done anything more then maybe coming late to class.

Being a christian school, apparently our policy is forgiving students if they apologize so ill send it to our year level coordinator and perhaps the principle.

I hope it works.

To TS:They were afraid to fail. I dont understand why people cant just enjoy the test and laugh out loud when they fail and blame them selves for it. However I got a fealing that the persons buddy who also got caught was enjoying it.

Throwing a Bible got someone expelled? That's hilarious, and I thought I went to a redneck school.

Oh, wait, I see above she hit someone with it. That's a little different... but no less hilarious.

There was a lot more than that, people do tend to ignore everything else for the hilarity factor.

Beefy, even in that story, preparing a key...it was a teachers staffroom. There is no way a teacher would have given them that key, as that isnt allowed. So they forged a key to get into school classrooms. It was planned. I would be worried about who they went to to do it. Perhaps more students are involved.

Well there always is more to any story.

I would personally stay out of it because you don't know what really went on between the girls and any other people involved. If she is a good friend then I would pass on what has been suggested.

Not to be a smart ass but she should write a letter to the Principal about her Principles. If she is a good student then she should accept her punishment stating that senior year expulsion would be undo and harsh punishment.
However, she accepts responsibility and is suspended for x amount of days, removed from extra school activities for the rest of the year and a self imposed probation till she graduates. One more strike and she is gone. I think if she wrote something along these lines and was sincere she would have a good case.
It was already mentioned but support from a teacher would benefit her cause.

I just had a chat with her and she claims that the door was left unlocked. And she didnt have the keys. I think shes lying but there is no evidence that she is so ill believe her.

She said that the reason she was expelled instead of suspencion was because the authority thought that stealing was completely planned. But now that shes claiming its not then perhaps the punishment should be a little lighter.

Being a boarder it is easy to access those area which is out of bounds. Therefore the teachers shouldve locked the door of the office full of exciting test papers.

Seeing as theres been a case where expelled student was allowed back in the school (Although it took her 2 terms) in this case she shouldnt be punished that extremely.

I have asked her to send the letter her self and she did so. But she still reckons that a few additional letter from others would help
