Dear Principal Farley
Dear Principal Farley, I am writing to you to discuss me completing high school early. After putting a lot of work into my high school career I would like to start a new part of my life, a new chapter. It’s always been a goal of mine to succeed and graduate and for me, completing high school early would be an even bigger bonus. I have worked hard to receive all my credits and pass each class, even if I struggled and it would be a honor to complete high school early.

This person's effort was my mom, jessica hardisty. My mother is the reason I am where I am today. She has sacrificed so many things to help raise me and to help me become a successful women. Raising me wasn't a easy job I caused tears to fall, I started fights with her and some days I just made life miserable. She spent endless days arguing with me about homework and school. She had to deal with all the crap I put her through, and I look back now and I realize that if it wasn't for her being strict and hard on me I wouldn't have made it this
