Tip (Subject to signature): Order: subject line → greeting → why you are writing → details → a polite thank-you line → sign-off → your full name. Good habits: a clear subject, short paragraphs, checked spelling, a named attachment, an email ID based on your name. Poor habits: no subject, ALL CAPITALS, emojis to a principal, text-message spelling, one huge paragraph, no name at the end. Follow up politely after a few working days.
