Student Tardies

It is extremely important for students to be in class on time. Students who are tardy miss out on the beginning explanations and learning of the day. They also interrupt the routine established by the teacher. Students are considered tardy if they are not in class at the 8:00 a.m. bell, the start of the instructional day.

Excused Tardy: To receive an excused tardy, a student must bring a note signed by a doctor.

Unexcused Tardy: Any student arriving to class after 8:00 a.m. without a doctor’s note will be marked unexcused tardy.
