Students who are tardy must submit written excuses from a parent indicating the reason for the tardiness. When students are habitually late and lateness is unexcused, the minutes will be accrued and when the number of minutes totals the equivalent of a school day, that day will be recorded as an unexcused absence.
Students who arrive late to school (after 7:45 a.m. Middle School, 7:50 a.m. High School, or 8:35 a.m. Elementary School) should report directly to the office to sign-in and get a pass.
