    The key takeaways are tips for writing an effective cover letter and resume for an elementary school principal position, including highlighting relevant skills, accomplishments, and qualifications without repeating all the information from the resume.

    According to the passage, the purpose of a cover letter is to complement the resume by describing an applicant's core competencies and passion for the job, not serve as a mini resume by repeating all the same information.

    Some effective techniques used in the sample cover letter include using two bullet points to highlight leadership skills and administrative competence, and adding specific facts to quantify achievements and help the reader understand the full scope of leadership accomplishments.

    This client was looking for a new challenge as an elementary principal - this sample

    cover letter represents the applicant's strong ability to make decisions, promote values,
    and develop a top-notch school team.

    This elementary school principal cover letter example showcases the client's education
    and credentials, and years of administrative and classroom expertise. Judith's
    leadership skills, relevant personality traits, and enthusiasm really stand out. Keywords
    such as staff development, faculty goals, multicultural awareness, and gender sensitivity
    will ensure the cover letter makes it past the scanner and to the human eye.

    You will notice that the cover letter matches the principal resume sample in formatting,
    style, font, and borders. This ensures consistency between documents and makes for a
    visually pleasing, matching application package. The examples of the teachers and
    school administrators resume on this website are only a selected few styles/templates
    we use. When we design and write our clients' resume, the design, font, and formatting
    we use are diverse.

    The content of each resume we write is extremely unique to the individual, we are NOT
    a 'resume mill' type resume writing company.

    The cover letter targeting an elementary administration position begins by highlighting


    Judith's years of experience, education credentials, and experience which will entice the
    reader to continue reading to find out more. We then go on to list her best skills as an
    administrator, as well as her past successes.

    Using the two bullets to showcase leadership and administrative competence ensures
    the reader will notice these qualities, and be prompted to move on to Judith's resume.
    These two bullet points are very effective because they highlight her skills and
    experience without completely reiterating everything that is stated in the resume.
    Repeating information is perhaps the biggest mistake that principals and other
    education professionals make when writing a cover letter. Cover letters are supposed to
    serve as a complement to your resume, describing your core competencies and passion
    for the job, not a mini resume. Although, you may repeat a few things, such as your
    degree and relevant certifications.

    Instead of repeating similar information across multiple documents, take a couple of


    relevant accomplishments in your most relevant role and describe them in a little more
    detail. Add in specific facts if you can to quantify your achievements and make it easier
    for the reader to understand the full scope of your leadership accomplishments. If you
    are pursuing a school leadership position take the time to gather information
    regarding relevant achievements and skills.

    Once again, whether you are wishing to secure a high school principal, middle school,
    head of school, or superintendent position show what makes you qualified to do the job.
    You can review many other cover letter examples on this website.

    We then end the cover letter by providing information that is not in the resume at all. We
    describe her commitment to the students and staff that she serves by stating her
    educational philosophy. This helps a school to visualize what they can expect out of her
    leadership.

    Lastly, the cover letter ends with the conclusion paragraph that states she will call to
    follow-up at a specified time. This is a great tactic that ensures future communication.
