From the Fourth Secondary Grade
Your children committed acts disruptive to order in the school and inside the classroom on Thursday
corresponding to 20 / 10 / 1966, specifically when the teaching process was proceeding regularly in the classroom adjacent
to their class, which is the Third Intermediate Grade, as your children began hitting the wall of the mentioned classroom
violently, which led to the disturbance of the class and the disruption of its order in an annoying manner. The teacher of
the other class was forced to submit a complaint to the administration, and as a result of the investigation, your children admitted that they
were the ones who committed these acts, which, to say the least, indicate recklessness.
Nevertheless, the administration of this school decided not to punish your children this time due to
their frankness and their admission that they were the ones who committed these annoying acts, but it will take
the harshest penalties against them if these acts are repeated in the future.
Please return this letter to the school after it has been signed by you.

From the fourth preparatory class
Your children committed acts disruptive to the school's order and inside the classroom on Thursday
corresponding to 20 / 10 / 1966, specifically when the teaching process was proceeding regularly in the adjacent class
to their class, which is the third intermediate class. Your children began hitting hard on the wall of the
aforementioned class, which led to the disturbance of the class and the disruption of its order in a distressing manner. The teacher of
the other class was forced to submit a complaint to the administration. As a result of the investigation, your children confessed that they
were the ones who committed these acts, which are described at the very least as indicative of recklessness.
Nevertheless, the administration of this school decided not to punish your children this time, due to
their frankness and their confession that they were the ones who committed these annoying acts, but it will take
the harshest penalties against them if these acts are repeated in the future.
