Important Information about Morning Drop Off and Tardies
School begins at 8:10 and your student is tardy at 8:10.
Our staff stands outdoors from 8:00-8:10 each morning. At 8:10, we start walking towards the doors and once we are inside, your student will need to be signed in tardy at the office window in order for us to maintain accurate attendance records. If an adult signs the student in, it is an excused tardy. If there is no adult to sign in the student, it is an unexcused tardy.
While we understand that this may be frustrating, this can be avoided by ensuring that your student arrives to school prior to 8:10.
