Dear Prospective Administrator: 


I wish to apply for an assistant or vice-principal at your school.

As you will note on my enclosed resume, I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching, an ESL endorsement and am currently finishing my Administrative Endorsement.  I have been an Achievement Coordinator for the past two years, focusing on school improvement through the use of the Data Wise inquiry cycle.   I have also been working with leadership, data and grade level teams to support RTI at all levels as well as leading and facilitating professional development while  coaching teachers  in Sheltered Instruction, Writing, Reading and TAG.   Prior to this I taught fifth grade, middle school, high school, outdoor education and pre-school.

My resume illustrates specific examples of my teaching and leadership abilities. My evaluations have always noted my strengths at relationship building, creative thinking, technological innovation, problem solving,  long-range planning, and an ability to communicate with diverse populations. I believe that my strengths and capacities are exactly what you are looking for to fill your position.

I enjoy the challenges of education and working with administrators, teachers, parents, and students. I am committed to creating opportunities to make education happen for each student. I feel that I can be an effective leader and team player for your school.

I have enclosed a resume and a link to my website. If I can provide any further information, please feel free to call  or e-mail me. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely, Joshua Zeller
