Tardiness. A student is tardy if he or she arrives after the time fixed by the school for the beginning of the morning or afternoon session. If the student arrives after 8:30 am, he or she is marked absent half a day. A record of all tardiness is kept in the attendance register and records. Students are expected to be at school by 7:50 a.m. Those arriving after 7:55 a.m. are considered tardy and must report to the office for admittance. Students will not be admitted into class unless the office has given the student an admittance slip. Students who are consistently absent or tardy may incur academic and behavior consequences. A student who is absent or tardy 6 or more days during a trimester will be considered excessive. Since homework will be collected immediately after the second bell, a student who is tardy will only receive partial credit for homework assignments on that day because the homework is late.
