Tardy to School

Any student who is not in class by 8:00 a.m. must report directly to the Main Office and sign in. Students must present an acceptable note documenting the reason for their tardiness. If a valid note, documenting an excused reason is not received at the time of tardiness, the tardy will be unexcused and a detention will be issued, all beverages and food shall be disposed of upon late entry.

NOTE: Car problems and oversleeping by the parent or child are not considered legitimate reasons for being late to school.
