Dear Ms. Right,

I am writing to formally announce my resignation from my position as a Science Teacher at Springfield Elementary School, effective May 25, 2024. This decision was not made lightly and comes after careful consideration of my personal circumstances. My family is relocating to another state due to significant career advancement opportunities for my spouse, which necessitates my own departure from the school.

Working at Springfield Elementary has been a profoundly enriching experience. Over the past three years, I have enjoyed fostering curiosity and a love of science among my students, and I have learned immensely from my dedicated colleagues. I am grateful for the professional development opportunities that I was provided, which have greatly enhanced my teaching skills and deepened my passion for education.

I am committed to making this transition as smooth as possible. I will complete all pending grading, ensure that all my reports are finalized, and prepare transition documents for my successor. I am also willing to participate in the selection process for a new teacher and help train them, if my schedule allows it.

Please let me know if there are any specific ways you would like me to facilitate this transition. I hope to maintain a positive relationship with Springfield Elementary School, and I look forward to supporting the school in any way I can in the future.

Thank you again for the opportunity to be part of such a supportive and dynamic community. I am hopeful that my departure will be as minimal a disruption as possible, and I am eager to see Springfield Elementary continue to succeed.

Sincerely,

John Deo
Science Teacher
Springfield Elementary School
