Tyler Sullivan is in the fifth grade,according to HyperVocal, and he skipped school on Friday to attend go to work with his dad, Ryan Sullivan. The President was scheduled to make an appearance at the Honeywell factory where the elder Sullivan works. The Sullivan two would up meeting the President, and Obama didn't hesitate to whip out the Presidential parchment and write a note to Tyler's fifth grade teacher Mrs. Ackerman explaining his absence. A "he was with me!" note from the President should do the trick.
