Dear Teacher: Here's a Good Excuse

DEAR TEACHER:
Please excuse Lisa for being absent. She was sick, and I had her shot.

DEAR SCHOOL:
I hope you will excuse John for being absent on Jan. 28, 29, 30, 31, 32 and also 33.

DEAR MISS LARSON:
Jack didn't go to school yesterday because he had two teeth taken out of his face.

MRS. SMITH:
Please excuse Tommy for being absent yesterday. He had diarrhea, and his boots leak.

DEAR MR. ANDERSON:
Maryann was absent yesterday because she had a fever and upset stomach. Her sister was also sick, and her brother had a fever. I wasn't too well, either. There must be something going around.

DEAR MR. THOMAS:
Jennifer missed school yesterday for a good reason. We forgot to get the Sunday paper off the porch, and when we found it Monday, we thought it was Sunday.
