​​​Tardiness​

A student is tardy if he or she arrives after the beginning of class. A student is marked absent for half a day if the student arrives after 9 am. 3 days of being tardy per semester is considered one day absence.​

Being absent 15 or more days in a trimester may be cause for the child to be retained, or asked to withdraw from school. (Section 4-04-1, Absence).

​The school must keep a record of all tardiness in the attendance register and records.​
