Dear [Principal's Name],
I am writing to address the recent concerns regarding my alleged smoking on school premises. I understand the severity of this matter and would like to present my perspective and exculpatory statements concerning the situation.
First and foremost, I want to express my commitment to maintaining a positive and healthy environment for both students and staff. I fully recognize the school’s policy against smoking and the importance of adhering to such regulations. It has always been my intent to model appropriate behavior for my students and foster a culture of health and responsibility.
On [specific date of the incident], I was seen in close proximity to what appeared to be smoking. However, I want to clarify that I was not actively smoking or using any tobacco products at that time. [If applicable, provide any context that may support your case, such as being near someone else who was smoking or using an e-cigarette for a different purpose, etc.]. I assure you that I do not engage in smoking or any other activities that would undermine the values we uphold at [School's Name].
Additionally, I would like to emphasize that I am committed to my role as an educator and the impact it has on the students I serve. I value the trust placed in me by the school administration, my colleagues, and the families we work with. I take any allegations seriously and am dedicated to upholding the integrity of our school community.
I respectfully request an opportunity to discuss this matter further and provide any additional information needed to clear up this misunderstanding. Thank you for considering my statements. I appreciate your understanding and look forward to resolving this issue promptly.
Sincerely,
[Your Name]
