New Tardy Procedure
Beginning in January we are making some minor changes in our morning procedures regarding tardies to homeroom.
We will ring an 8:50 “warning” bell so students in the building will know to proceed to homeroom. These students who enter homeroom after the 8:55 tardy bell will be marked tardy by their homeroom teacher. Carpool students , entering through the Wildcat Den after the 8:55 bell, will have to sign in and their tardy will be recorded by office staff.
When all exterior doors are locked at 9:05, parents are asked to accompany their child to check in with the office.
Excessive tardies may result in detention. Striving for safety and accountability.
