Tardy Policy to Change Effective March 1


Time to have that Talk!

Class time is important.  Talking to friends is important.  Telling Mom where you are going to be at 4 pm is important.  How do I fit it all in?

The 1st period class starts at 8:05 am.  It has been that way for over one full year.  The first bell is at 8:00 am and means start walking toward class.  8:05 am is a TARDY BELL.  Students arriving at school or just getting to class after 8:05 are TARDY.

there are five minutes in between classes.  With a couple exceptions it is possible to go from one class in one corner of the building to another class in the opposite corner in five minutes.  Yes, it means there is limited conversation on that walk across campus.

A student need to be in the next class by the tardy bell.  There is a warning bell two minutes earlier than the tardy bell.

Please discuss with you student the importance of being where the student belongs.  More details to follow.  The conversations with students starts today,
