TARDINESS
Prompt and regular attendance is important.
Frequent tardiness indicates a lack of interest in school, disrupts the classroom, and inconveniences the students, teachers and staff. An unusual circumstance can cause an occasional tardiness; however, frequent tardiness will not be accepted.
A student, who enters the school after 7:50am, must then report to the office to register the tardy. When a student is tardy three (3) times in a trimester, the parent and child will write a note explaining the tardiness. If there are more than three (3) tardies and/or a consistent trend appears, a meeting with the parents will be scheduled with the principal. If the problem persists, parents may be required to serve/pay one extra service hour per 3 tardies.
