Thank you for your note. Watch spelling and
punctuation; you tend to use a series of dots
to avoid it! Watch repetitions and clichs.
You might look up the spelling at the

Dear Miss Barrett,
Please initial the entry: "Jumped or fell" over the red line on the enclosed PRC for Blake, Alice.
You will note that her CC's for the last 4 terms indicate excellent adjustment:
Term 1: Nice & helpful
" 2: Leadership potential
" 3: Reliableblackboard monitor
" 4: Lovely girlpolite
It's most atypical for a girl with her stable PPP to have done what she did, but there are factors beyond our control.
