TARDIES - FIRST PERIOD:
Any student arriving after the start of the school day must report to the Attendance Office to obtain a tardy slip before going to class. A student who arrives more than 20 minutes late to school will be considered absent from first period. A violation will be issued if the absence is classified unexcused. The Attendance Office requires parental contact when a student arrives more than 30 minutes late. Excessive tardiness may result in disciplinary action such as a referral or disciplinary probation. Unexcused tardies will result in a violation. Transportation problems are not grounds for an excused tardy (including carpool difficulties). Six tardies equates to 1 absence regardless of the reason.
TARDIES - PERIOD 2-7:
For periods two through seven, classroom teachers issue violations for tardiness. Students serve one detention for each tardy. Students who receive three tardies/three violations any time during the school year will receive a referral. Six tardies equates to 1 absence regardless of the reason.
