Rationale:The purpose of this data collection and analysis was to gather information to further understand the reasons why students are late to class and late to school.
Survey #1: FindingsN=51 Many students frequently tardy

Majority of students who are late to school are bus riders • Many students are late to school due to the number of buses they take to school, and missing a bus. These students are coming from Northeast, North, Brooklyn Center, and South Minneapolis. • 12 bus riders stated they were late to school because they missed the bus • Many students stated that they would like the school times to be later • Students are given passes without being asked for a reason • There is no visible clock when students enter the building Major Findings Late to school
The most tardies are during 1stperiod • Students are stopping to socialize in the halls, then respond at the second bell • Students are permitted into class within a minute of the bell without a pass • Students are given passes without being asked for a reason • There are little to no consequences for students who are tardy to class • Students are able to assimilate into class when they are late. • Teachers are not standing in their doorways to greet students • Teachers with clear consequences for tardies, have less students tardy to their classes • Teachers with a “bell ringer” and defined time to complete it, have less tardies Major Findings Late to class
Are teachers checking the time on passes? • What is the time difference from when the student receives a pass to the time they get to class? • What is the current policy in each class for students who are tardy? What are the consequences? • What would create a sense of urgency and motivate students to come to school and class on time? • Are all Plasco equipment synching? Next Steps…More information needed… Limitation: There is a discrepancy between the data in Plasco and in Discovery. Are Plasco scanners synching to the same system?
