Excuse Letter for Being Absent in School Due to Family Emergency

To: Principal Richard
Bel-Air, Maryland, United States

I am writing in regards to my recent absence. I have been absent for about a few days due to a family emergency.

My grandmother has passed away, and it came suddenly as a huge shock to our entire family.
I must look after my mother for the time being, and I do not believe it is fit for me to come to school at this time.

I will be back in class within a week, and I will catch up on all the work I missed. I hope that you understand.

Sincerely,
Heather Graham

Excuse Letter for School Due to Doctor’s Appointment

 Respected Class Teacher,

I sent this letter to inform you that I will not be coming to school on Monday, 23rd September (Date) due to my doctor’s appointment. I am aware that I have a test on that day, and I tried to arrange an appointment another day but the only slot available was on Monday.

I am sincerely sorry for missing the class test but I assure that I will give the test on some other day, or if you want to take the test from me before the official date that would also be okay. I will prepare for the test beforehand, and get a good score. In addition to this, I will cover all the missed course, or class work with the help of my peers, and if there would be any problem then I will surely ask you.

I hope you understand. Thank you.

Best Regards,

Excuse Letter for Being Absent in School Due to Family Emergency

 Respected Class Teacher,

I sent this letter to inform you about my absence from school for three consecutive days in past week. Actually, due to the death of a close relative in my family I had to go to my village. As he was really close person to my father so we decided to stay there for a little longer time after the funeral. This all happened so suddenly that I did not have time to inform the management, and my father was also in shock so he also did not think of it.

However, I assure that I will cover the entire missed course with the help of my peers, and if I have any problem regarding it then I will ask about it from you. Thank you.

Best Regards,

Excuse letter for being absent in school due to family emergency

Respected Principal,

With all due respect, I am writing this letter to inform you about the unfortunate circumstance due to why I was absent in school. A day back when I came back from school my mother told me that we were leaving for Islamabad because my uncle is not well. He had a severe heart attack, and since he lives alone we have to reach there as soon as possible. My uncle’s wife was flying in from Karachi, and we being the nearest family in Lahore had to leave immediately. Upon reaching the hospital he was admitted in, the doctor told us that he would take some time to heal but he will be alright. He was admitted there for 2 days, and on the third day my family came back to Lahore. This is why I was absent from school for some days.

I hope you will acknowledge my situation, and excuse me for being absent.

Best Regards,

Sample excuse letter for being absent in school due to travel

 Respected Principal,

With all due respect I am writing this letter of excuse to inform you that I was absent in school due to travel.  In summer break, I went to Europe to visit my family there. I was supposed to come back a week ago but I had a huge delay in my flight. I booked my tickets at the last moment, and since it was peak time I was not able to get an early plane ticket. The earliest ticket that I could find was a week late, and so I booked it. I excuse myself for being absent for a week in school.

I hope you will acknowledge my situation, and excuse my absence.

Best Regards,

Bilal Ali
