Tardy Procedures

  •  

    To maximize student instruction, all students must report to class on time and be prepared to learn. In order to ensure a positive outcome, all teachers will be committed to the procedures below:

    • Classroom doors will be closed and locked at the tardy bell (teachers use discretion when students are within sight).  Flexibility for tardies will be given at the start of the year until room locations are learned.

    • Students who are in class are not allowed to leave the room for the first 10 minutes of class and the last 10 minutes of class.

    • Teachers will sweep/clear the halls.

    • Students will go to the nearest tardy station (locations are in the East, West, and Towers).

    • After the halls are fully clear, teachers will stop sweeping. 

    • Students sent to the tardy station will give their Student ID # to the adults at the table.

    • Tardies will be tracked.

    • Students will receive a tardy pass back to class unless they have more than six per quarter, then they will receive a pass to ALC to serve a period of ALC or a day of ALC depending on the number of tardies accumulated.

    • Teachers will accept students’ passes upon return and let them into the classroom.

    • Students will be given a “clean slate” each quarter and tardies will start over at zero on day one of the new quarter.
