Tardiness

A student shall be considered tardy to school if the student is not in his/her homeroom/first period class when the bell to begin homeroom ceases. Habitual tardiness on the part of the students shall not be tolerated.

Students who exhibit habitual tardiness shall be subject to disciplinary action, appropriate under the circumstances.  Parents of students who continue to be tardy shall be notified for a conference with the principal, and the student may be subject to suspension from school and the parent/legal guardian subject to court fines or community service.
