Write A Letter To Your Teacher Asking For Permission
Dear Mr. [teacher name],
I’m writing to ask for permission to take the following test: [test name]. I know it’s not in the syllabus, but I’ve been working really hard on [project name] and I think it’s important to be able to show you my progress on it. I’ll get back to work immediately after taking this exam, so there won’t be any time lost.
Please let me know if it’s okay, and thank you so much!
Dear Mr. Teacher,
I am writing to ask for permission to go on a field trip with my class. The field trip will be taking place next week and it is one that I would like to attend because it has been planned for a long time and there are many important things for us to learn about our country’s history. I have already spoken with my parents about this and they do not have any objections. They know how much this field trip means to me, but they also know how important it is for me to do well in school. I hope you will give me permission so that I can have this opportunity.
Sincerely, [your name].
Dear Mrs. Smith,
I have been thinking about what you said in class yesterday and I completely agree with you. I would like to write a letter to my teacher asking for permission to go to the library.
I will be able to get there without any problem because it is very close to my house and I will be there by myself. I will bring my phone with me so that if anything comes up, I can call home.
I hope that you give me permission to go because I really want to go!
Dear Mr. Harris,
I have a project due in my English class that I am working on with my partner, Julia. We need to interview someone who works in [insert career field]. Would you be willing to be interviewed by us? If so, we would like to schedule an appointment at your convenience. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Dear Mrs. Jones,
I’m writing to ask for your permission to have my birthday party in the school cafeteria. I understand that you may not be able to give me permission because of other events already scheduled there. If this is the case, please let me know and I will make other arrangements.
I would like to have a small party with cake and punch for my friends after school on Friday, December 16th. We will clean up afterward and put everything back where it belongs.
Thank you so much for considering my request!
Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m writing to ask for permission to take a couple of extra days off from school next week. I have some personal matters to attend to and am hoping you will help me out by letting me have a few days off.
I know that you are very busy, so thank you in advance for considering my request. If you need any other information about my plans, please let me know and I will provide it as soon as possible.
Sincerely, [your name].
Dear [teacher’s name],
I’m writing to ask for permission to bring my dog in for a visit to your classroom. I know we don’t usually allow pets in the school, but I’ve been taking care of [dog’s name] since he was a puppy and he’s never had any issues with other dogs or people. He is very well-behaved and loves everyone! I think it would be a great experience for the students to learn how to interact with animals and teach them how to be kind and gentle around them.
Thank you so much for considering this request, I really look forward to hearing from you soon!
Dear Ms. Jones,
I would like to ask your permission to go on a field trip to the Museum of Natural History on Friday, October 20th. My class is going and I am in need of your permission slip.
Thank you kindly for considering this request.
Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m writing to ask for your permission to go to the National History Day Competition in Washington DC, which is taking place next month. I have been preparing for it since last year, and I know that this is an amazing opportunity and experience that will really help me develop as a historian. It would be great if you could lend me your support.
I’ve attached my application and résumé below. Thanks so much!
Dear Mr. Smith,
I know that the semester is almost over and we’re only a few weeks away from graduation and I’m sure that you are very busy with other things so I’m writing this letter to ask for your permission to go on a trip with my family after school ends. My mother has arranged for me to go to Hawaii and visit my grandmother who lives there now. She is sick, so it would mean a lot to me if I could see her one last time before she dies.
I’m positive that all my work will be done before the final exam and there is no reason for me not to go on this trip since it does not conflict with any school activities or lessons. Please let me know if you agree or disagree with my request because I really want to see my grandmother before she passes away.
Thank you in advance for your consideration!
Dear Mr. [teacher’s name],
I am writing to you today to ask for permission to take a trip to [place] with my family in the coming weeks. I will be traveling from [day of departure] to [date of return]. I have always been an active participant in class, and I promise that I will continue to be an active contributor while away from school.
I do not want to miss any assignments or tests while on vacation, so I thought it best to ask you in advance if it would be okay for me to take this trip.
Dear Mr. Smith,
I’m writing to ask for permission to be excused from class on Thursday and Friday of next week. My sister is getting married and I’d like to attend.
I know that the school has rules about attending weddings and other events, but I have already had my parents give me permission to miss class for this event.
I hope you’ll consider my request because it would mean a lot to me. Thank you very much!
Dear [teacher’s name],
I would like to ask if I could be excused from class at 2:00 p.m. today, March 31st. I need to go to the doctor to get my flu shot.

Thank you for your consideration.

I am writing to ask for permission to do an independent project on [topic]. I am interested in learning more about this topic, and I would like to present my findings to the class. This will be a fun and engaging way for us all to learn more about [topic].
I have already done some research on this topic, and I would like your help in finding more information. If you can help me with that, it would be very helpful.

Dear Ms. Brown,
I am writing to ask for your permission to attend a concert on Friday, May 10th at 7:00 pm. The event is being held in the school auditorium and it is free of charge.

Dear Mrs. Smith,
I’m writing to ask for your permission to attend the school dance next Saturday night. I’ve had a lot of fun at dances this year and would like to attend the senior dance. I understand that it is against school policy for students to leave campus without an adult chaperone, so I will need to have an adult who is not my parent accompany me. My parents are out of town at a conference, so I will ask my uncle (my parents’ brother) to come with me if you agree that I should attend.
I hope you will consider my request. Thank you for your time!
Dear Miss/Mr. [teacher’s name],

Thank you very much for your time, [name].
Dear Ms. Smith,
I have been a student in your class for the past two years, and I am writing to ask if I can take on a very important project outside of school.
I have been accepted into an after-school program where I will be working with other students to create a new web application. The application will allow people to coordinate their schedules more easily and quickly than through traditional means. It will also include many features that make it easier for people with disabilities to use it.
The group needs help from some teachers, who can help us find ways to make the app accessible to everyone. We would like your permission to use the computer lab for this purpose.
We are very excited about this project and hope you will support us by allowing us to use the computer lab during free periods! Thank you!
