Dear Chairperson;

I am writing this letter to you to express my utmost interest in the music position that has become available in your school district.  I have enclosed my professional resume for your review.

As you will note on the enclosed resume, the breadth of my expertise covers a wide area of responsibilities. I am a hard working, ambitious leader and motivator. I am recognized for flexibility, adaptability, and for a high degree of expertise in the field of music. 

As also can be noted by my eight years of volunteer service to Little League baseball, I enjoy working with and connect well with children - particularly those between the ages of five and twelve.  I feel that a position in your Elementary school will help me to further my work with this age group, and allow me to nurture and prepare the children of today to be the leaders of tomorrow. 

I look forward to the opportunity to meet with you and discuss our mutual interests in the education of our children.  You can reach me by phone to arrange for an interview.

Sincerely,

Martin D. Ort
