Getting to school on time matters because it sets the tone for the entire day. Arriving on time helps students feel calm, prepared, and ready to learn, instead of rushed or stressed. It ensures they don’t miss important instructions, learning activities, or connections with teachers and classmates. Being punctual also builds responsibility and good habits that support success in school—and later in life.
Here is the tardy to school procedure:
In order to ensure that students are getting to school on time, we have the following procedures. This resets each semester.
When a student has 5 tardies to school, the student gets a warning
When a student has 5 more tardies (10 days), the student will receive an afterschool detention
When a student has 5 more tardies (15 days) a student will be assigned a 2 hour afterschool detention and loss of privileges/lunch release (if applicable)
When a student has 5 more tardies (20 days) a student will be suspended and loss of privileges for the rest of semester.
Please note that tardies may also affect athletic participation.
