LATE POLICY
A student is tardy if he or she arrives after the time fixed by the school for the beginning of the morning or afternoon session. If the student comes after the designated time, he or she is marked absent half a day. A record of all tardiness is kept in the attendance register and records.
Prompt arrival at school is expected of all students. Late arrival disrupts class and causes loss of instruction time. Any child who arrives at school after 7:55 a.m. is considered tardy. Students must report to the health room when tardy and receive a tardy slip. Students arriving after 8:15 a.m. must report to the health room WITH A PARENT to sign in.
After 4 unexcused tardies and/or unexcused early withdrawals in one trimester, there will be a $8.00 Attendance Fee charge for every subsequent tardy and early withdrawal. These fees will be deducted from your FACTS account.
Continued tardies will require a meeting with the principal. By state mandate, excessive tardies will be reported to the Bonita Unified Truancy Officer.
