For Ms. Patel
Dear Ms. Patel,
Leo used to hide his reading log under his bed. Since he joined your class, he reads to his little sister every night before she falls asleep.
I don't know exactly what you said to him in September, but it worked. Thank you for seeing something in him and not letting go of it.
Maria, Leo's mom
You don't need the perfect words, or the school's address. Tell us one thing they did, and we'll help you say it and get it to them.
The day it arrives
01
It shows up at school
A sealed envelope in their school mailbox, addressed to them by name. Not an email, not a gift card.
02
Your words, on a card
Inside, the exact thing they did for your child, written the way you'd say it if you had five quiet minutes.
03
Signed by you
From you and your child, with your return address on the envelope in case they want to write back.
In a University of Chicago study, people who wrote thank-you letters expected them to feel awkward to receive. The people who got them were more surprised and felt better than the writers predicted, and they cared about the warmth more than the wording.

One question: what do you want to thank them for? A sentence about your kid is plenty.
We write a real letter from your words. Read it free, change the tone, and send it only when it sounds like you.
Type the school's name and we fill in the address. Printed on a card, addressed to them by name, with your return address on the envelope.
Anyone who shows up for your kid: the coach, the tutor, the school nurse, the bus driver. Or a teacher from your own school days.
No. Write it, read it, and pay with just your email. We email you a receipt with a link to follow your letter, no password to make.
No. Type the school's name and we fill in its address from the U.S. Department of Education's school directory. We address the envelope to the teacher by name. If you'd rather use another address, you can type it in.
Any time it's true. Good moments: the end of a grading period, before the holidays, Teacher Appreciation Week in May, or the last weeks of school.
Writing and reading your letter is free. Printing and mailing it is $6.99, charged only when it goes out. If it can't be mailed, you're refunded in full.
One specific thing is enough: a change you've seen at home, a note they sent, how they handled a hard week. The letter only uses what you tell us. It never makes things up.
Yes. It's written from your words and signed with your name. A small line at the bottom says it was printed and mailed by Dropfetti.
It takes about two minutes, and you don't need an account. You see the letter before you pay anything.
