Honestly, I don’t know where to start this year has probably been one of the roughest years I’ve had. I first would like to say that this letter was my idea and my idea alone nobody else told me to do this and I had a few adults check this letter to make sure it was respectful and polite.

I want to make this very clear that the point of this letter is not to bash you in anyway but to make you understand the pain that you have caused all of the students the stress, the anger, and the sadness. I accept that we as
