To Whom It May Concern:

It is with great pleasure that I write this letter of recommendation for Jose for this job.

Jose Angel has been a student of mine for the past year here at El Capitan High School. Even
though he is not in any of my classes, he is an integral part of the agriculture program here at this
school. He is a common fixture here in the department and is always ready and willing to help.

Jose has quickly shown himself to be a leader in the chapter by not only taking charge in the
times it is needed, but by having a great relationship with his fellow students to where they
respect him and can be coordinated by him.

Jose’s future plans take him further in the agriculture industry as his goal is to be a welder. He
has made great strides here in high school and I believe him to continue on that path upon
graduation. There is no doubt that he will succeed and meet his goals.

I would recommend Jose without hesitation and if you have any questions, please feel free to
contact me.

Thank You,
