Mrs. Janessen

Art Instructor

Roosevelt High School

Johnstown, CO 80537

Dear Mrs. Janessen

We have spoken a little about college and I would enjoy letting you know that I have decided to go to college in search of a Bachelor’s in Environmental Engineering. I would appreciate it if you could write a recommendation letter for me and possibly send it to me via email or by hand. Because of our familiarity developed by four classes in my time here at Roosevelt, you understand my creative thinking skills, work ethic, and passions for designing, building, and even sketching the unique ideas. You know my qualities as an art student and as an individual, and my potential to bring a unique perspective to the engineering field.

As my instructor for drawing and pottery classes, you are familiar with my work ethic, passion for the unique, and my perspective of the world. I think you would be one of the best people to attest to my creative qualities and ability to succeed in a college. I am asking for your recommendation because I require them for some of the scholarships I am applying for. I believe the scholarships would aid me in my education because, as you have seen, when I am able to focus directly on one subject (i.e. a drawing or my education) the work I provide is on a far grander scale than when my mind is multitasking.

Please send the letter to me here at Roosevelt, through the address provided above, or my email as soon as is possible. Thank you for all your help, I sincerely appreciate you taking time to write this letter for me. If you need more information or have any questions, feel free to call (970-576-2295) or email me (s.ch1m3ra@gmail.com).

Sincerely,


Dalton Brumbaugh

Dear Mrs. Boresen,

We have been discussing college in the Expository Writing class almost every day, as I have written to you; I am planning on being either in the University of Wyoming in Laramie or South Dakota School of Mines in Rapid City. I would sincerely appreciate it if you would write a recommendation letter for me and sent it to me. Because I have taken two classes instructed by you in my time in Roosevelt, you have seen my growth as an individual. You have seen the quality of my work and my personal qualities; you have seen my passion for the fields of environmental engineering and technology.

As my instructor for Expository Writing and Speech, you are familiar with my work ethic, study habits, and grades. I think you would be one of the few people who would have a great since of my ability to succeed in my college education. I am asking for your recommendation because I am applying for a variety of scholarships and attempting to apply for work study programs, which require at bare minimum two letters of recommendation bare minimum. I have received an A in AP Calculus, a total score of 31 on my ACT, and an academic reward for getting a 4.22 GPA this semester.

Please send your letter to me by means of email (s.ch1m3ra@gmail.com) or by hand before March 1st so I may apply said letter to some of the applications I already have filled out. Thank you for your help, I enjoy and appreciate you taking time out of your day to write this letter for me.

Letter of Reccomendation Request #1- Mr. Mozer

662 S Carriage Dr
Milliken, CO 80543

Mr. Mozer
Spanish Instructor
Roosevelt High School
Johnstown, CO 80537

Dear Mr. Mozer,
As we have discussed at various times over this school year, I am planning to apply for scholarships in order to make my experiences in the University of Wyoming as financially sound as possible. I would appreciate it if you wrote up a recommendation letter for me and possibly either emailed it to me, or given me a copy for scanning and submission purposes. Due to my presence in your Spanish classes since 2008, I figured you would be the best candidate to attest to my growth in academia and attest to my ability to earn the scholarships I gain for the engineering field.
As my Spanish instructor for three years, you have become familiar with my imaginative, unique personality and the aspects of my work ethic, study habits, and willingness to work with a variety of concepts. I think you would have a great sense of my personality as a whole as both a student and a person, you would know if I could be successful or not. I am asking a recommendation of you because I have been actively seeking out scholarships and financial aid capable of aiding me in focusing solely on my studies in college. Having recently been awarded with a certificate in regard to my 4.12 GPA last semester and also earned a solid A in your course for many semesters; I feel that if I could focus solely on college, I could quickly attain a Bachelor’s degree in the engineering field and just as quickly be hard at work in the engineering field.
Please send your letter to me by hand, or by email at s.ch1m3ra@gmail.com as soon as you can, as some of the deadlines will be arriving in very short order. Thank you for your time, patience, and great teaching; I really appreciate all of it. Feel free to contact me using the above email address or (970)576-2295 if you have any questions or need any more information.
Sincerely,

Dalton Brumbaugh

My plans for the future, RHS alumni scholarship

After approximately 15 years, I plan to be established as the head of a major environmental energy company, either as the actual owner or heading the environmental R&D (research and development) department. While it is an understandably difficult task to develop such a position in a field so new at this time, that is also why I set my sights on this frontier of environmental energy. It is a field in its' infancy, there are discoveries to be made, ideas to be developed; Everything is new.

When I go into the University of Wyoming under an Environmental Sciences major, (or should finances prove capable, Environmental Engineering in South Dakota School of Mines) in 2011, I will maintain my present record of continuing growth and work hard in the fields associated with my major. As I study, I will come into a work study scholarship program in my sophomore year of college, so as to develop a stronger understanding of the process of setting up the various machines used to harness the environment. This time will be used for coming up with new ways to enhance the machines by making them more efficient or combining harnessing capabilities. 


The work study will enable me to get my foot in the door for a few companies in the field I have set my sights upon. I will apply to them for an entry-level or higher position by 2016 (a little time post-graduation). After doing this, I will research, study, and experiment with mechanisms, turbines and the like, in order to further develop the company. As I do so, I will research ways to further enhance the company in manufacturing, efficiency, etc.; By continuing a class or two in college I can continue to be a driving force in the research and manufacturing of mechanisms (in turbines, aesthetics, and effeciency of the mechanisms).

As years pass, discoveries will be made, and I am certain that I will be behind a few of them. I've designed ideas for mechanisms that could harness both wind and solar power, turn torrential rains into something legitimate for not only an energy-making turbine, but a greenhouse as well, amongst other things. Honestly, I believe I can accomplish becoming the head of a company's environmental R&D department, because I think differently and I use that to my advantage. I am guaranteed to have competition, but that will only make me strive to reach my goal that much more.

Revised RHS ALUMNI SCHOLARSHIP essay (NOT FINAL)

RHS Alumni Scholarship
Topic: College and Future Plans

Essay topic: Please describe, in the space below, what your plans are for the future and how you plan to achieve them.


After approximately 15 years, I plan to be established as the head of a major environmental energy company, either as the actual owner or heading the R&D (research and development) department. While it is an understandably difficult task to develop such a position in a field, so new at this time, that is also why I set my sights on this frontier of environmental energy. It is a field in its' infancy, there are discoveries to be made, ideas to be developed, everything is new, and the field changes often.

When I go into the University of Wyoming under an Environmental Sciences major, (or should finances prove capable, Environmental Engineering in South Dakota School of Mines) in 2011, I will maintain my present record of continuing growth and work hard in the fields associated with my major. As I study, I will come into a work study scholarship program my sophomore year of college, so as to develop a stronger understanding of the process of setting up the various machines used to harness the environment. Possibly coming up with ways to enhance the machines by making them more efficient or combining harnessing capabilities.  The work study will enable me to get my foot in the door for a few companies in the field I have set my sights upon. With this, I have a few companies to choose from to apply to for an entry-level or higher position within the company, (post-college graduation). After doing this, I will research, study, and experiment with mechanisms in order to further develop the company. As I do so, I will research ways to further enhance the company in manufacturing, efficiency, etc. by continuing a class or two in college, I can continue to be a driving force in the company through research and manufacturing of mechanisms (in turbines, aesthetics, and effeciency of the mechanisms).

As years pass, discoveries will be made, and I am certain that I will be behind a few of them. I've designed ideas for mechanisms that could harness both wind and solar power, turn torrential rains into something legitimate for not only a small turbine, but a greenhouse as well, amongst other things. Honestly, I believe I can accomplish becoming the head of a company involved in harnessing the elements, because I think differently and I use that to my advantage. I will use it to aid in the harnessing of our world around us, to develop the energy capable of helping advance our civilization.
