Dear Sir or Madam,
It is with pleasure that I provide this letter of recommendation on behalf of Ms. Stephanie Moore for an English
teaching position in your school. During her time at Elmwood Park High School as an English teacher, Ms. Moore
has built a quality reputation as being a sound instructor, quality contributor to the English Department and her
PLCs, and a reliable staff member to the building administration. As the former building principal of Elmwood
Park High School, I worked with and observed Ms. Moore and it is a pleasure to share her abilities and attributes
with you, for they have been an asset to EPHS and I know they will benefit your school similarly.
During Ms. Moore’s time at EPHS, she has had a positive impact on our students and the English Department.
Through my formal and informal observations of Ms. Moore, I have found her to be a student-centered and
positive presence in the classroom. Her strengths are clearly in her ability to create a classroom environment
focused on instruction and in her ability to develop quality instructional strategies to maximize student learning.
Ms. Moore has also always been witnessed to be an active and supportive colleague in her department and PLC
meetings.
It is with incredible confidence that I recommend Ms. Stephanie Moore for an English teaching position in your
school. Ms. Moore’s care for students, commitment to the school, and team approach with her colleagues are
outstanding qualities that will serve your community and school in the years to come. If you would like to discuss
her qualities in more detail or if I can be of further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact me.
With Tiger Pride,
Douglas J. Wildes
