Dear Jamie:

The Student Council started a program— called “Welcome to Lincoln”—for new transfer students. This program gives new students a tour of the school and assigns them study-buddies to help them in their first few weeks. The program has been beneficial for other new students, and I think you would benefit from it, too. As you are a new student in our school, I want to invite you to enter the program.

Sincerely,

Miguel Norris
