Return to School Excuse Letter from Parents

A return-to-school excuse letter from parents is a letter in which parents rationalize their child’s absence on his behalf and inform the reason for his not coming to school. There are various reasons why their return to school is not possible. The excuse letter written by parents makes it more genuine and official, thus increasing the chances of acceptance.

In such letters, parents write to the school principal, administration, management branch, or any other authoritative person about why their child cannot return to school. While writing such an excuse letter, first of all, introduce yourself with a reference to your child, mentioning his name, roll number, and grade. Tell the authorities why your child needs to stay absent from the school specifying his/her absence by giving specific dates. You need to keep writing brief, impersonal, and to the point. No extra details are appreciated when writing such letters.

Two sample letters are given in the following:

Re. Excuse for Merina’s Absence from School

Dear Sophy,

I am Semi Sorel, mother of Merina Sorel, a student of Grade VII with roll number 34 in your school. This letter aims to inform you that Merina cannot be present at school because of a family engagement. I completely understand the significance of her presence and the loss to be borne due to her absence, but it is not our fault. A sudden event needs her to stay with her granny in Canada.

As the schools have just opened and back-to-school time is always vitally important, I assure you that she will cover the course as quickly as possible as her first priority. Merina will be flying back to the US on July 23rd, 2020. Kindly excuse her absence for a week, i.e., from July 18th, 20XX, to July 23rd, 20XX.

This will be a kind favour from you. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Signature

Re. Letter to Excuse from Returning to School

Dear Noah,

I am Shirley Noam from C9 Residency, Montreal. I am the mother of Kim Noam, a student in grade VII at your school with registration number 43GHD0w99. Firstly, I want to congratulate you on the phenomenal success of the Annual Prize Distribution, which has recognized your school as the second-best Institute in Canada. It is a huge success and outcome of your industrious and tireless efforts. It is time to get back to work, and students return to school with new enthusiasm and zest to work harder.

I am sad to inform you that Kim is, unfortunately, suffering from a very irritable disease of chickenpox. She had her chicken pox last Friday, which left her in a very pathetic situation of irritation, recurring fever, and weakness, along with body aches. She will join the school very soon.

I hope you will show kindness to the matter I just put forth and grant her one week’s leave. Thank you in anticipation.

Sincerely

Signature
