  8. Tardies The school’s tardy policy has been developed to emphasize the importance of each student arriving on time to school every day and remaining in the classroom for the entire period. Learning personal responsibility by arriving to school and class on time is an integral part of the school’s standard of excellence, which helps prepare students for excellence.

  9. Tardies Students should be inside the classroom by 8:00am. A student arriving after this time must report to the front office and obtain a tardy slip. Tardiness to school will be unexcused, unless the student arrives to campus late for one of the following reasons: • Personal illness • Attendance at a required court appointment • Appointment with a doctor, dentist or other professional For a tardy to be excused, the student must present a note from the parent explaining the student’s late arrival. The school may also require a written note from a doctor, dentist or other professional.
