To Whom It May Concern:
I am pleased and proud to write this letter of recommendation for Miss Mayra Perez to
support her future applications to schools, programs and career opportunities- whichever she
may apply herself to; and, to thank her for her outstanding service to our school community.
Mayra has successfully served as an employee of the Sulphur Springs School District and
Valley View Community for three years (9/05/2010-2/20/2013). She has served our district in a
number of capacities; including: Response to Instruction(Rti) instructional aide, Special
education ( SH) Severely/Multiply Handicapped & Medically Fragile- Instructional Aide, Fluent
Spanish Translator, I.E.P. Translator, Special Event/Parent Information Workshop Translator,
Community Based English Tutoring (C.B.E.T. – an Adult College English Class) Aide, Yard
supervisor ( supporting 725+ students); and, a Substitute Office Assistant. Her job performance
is highly rated in all aspects of her assignments and responsibilities.
Mayra demonstrates initiative and keen common sense, is self- directed, and stays on

staff/teams/students. Mayra has earned a positive reputation with all who she works with. She is
aware of students’ needs, supports staff and parents; and keeps safety in mind while working.
Again, I strongly support Miss Mayra Pere in all her future endeavors and contributions.
If, in the future, you are lucky enough to have her apply with your organization, I invite and
encourage you to call me to allow me to relate her great potential, her qualifications, and
Mayra’s excellent character in greater detail.
Sincerely,
