‘To Whom It May Concern:
It is my privilege to write to you on behalf of Caitlin O'Reilly. Caitlin is an exceptional
young woman with a bright future. Rarely do I see students with such a high level of
enthusiasm, self-discipline and compassion for others.
Thad the pleasure of teaching Caitlin in her third year of studying Spanish. She is a
delightful student with strong vocabulary skills and quick acquisition of concepts. Even
‘when initially challenged by a lesson, she shows admirable work ethic. She is always
prepared, enthusiastic and willing to work with anyone in class. She helps those in her
group who are struggling. This last gesture stems from a “servant heart” which is obvious
in more than one way.
Caitlin is a faithful member of the WHS Key Club. The club meets weekly and serves
the community with monthly events. Caitlin’s compassionate view of the world coincides
beautifully with the philosophy of this club: to create student leaders through service to
others. As the faculty advisor of the club, I have seen Caitlin Christmas shop with
underprivileged children, volunteer at school fundraisers, empty school recycling bins and
perform a myriad of other tasks. She served as the club's Vice President for one year before
serving as President for the last two.. As such, she has organized major charity events which
have collected thousands of dollars for hurricane relief efforts, homeless shelters and local
food pantries! Many times I have witnessed Caitlin completing the less glamorous tasks
long after others have left an event.
I wholeheartedly believe that Caitlin will find success in any endeavor to which she
applies her efforts. She would be a true asset to any college campus fortunate enough to
welcome her.
Sincerely,
Keo, nestle —
