Brag Sheet
STUDENT PROCESS for Requesting a
LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION
LETTER OF RECOMMENDATION
If you need a recommendation letter from a staff member, please use the following process. (The college application will tell you if you need a recommendation as many colleges do not require one.)
- Make a copy of the Brag Sheet worksheet and fill it out completely.
- Ask a staff member 3-4 weeks in advance if he/she will write for you a Letter of Recommendation. Provide the teacher/counselor with a:
- Copy of your Brag Sheet, and
- Instructions about where to submit their letter of recommendation. Most colleges use a digital process requiring staff email.
- Teachers/Counselors will NOT share their letters directly with students. Recommendation letters are confidential.
- It is the student's responsibility to check that the staff member was able to correctly submit the recommendation. Teachers can reach out to Ms. Handrick for assistance.
