Car Riders
For student safety, they must be dropped off at the designated locations, which are either the north or south side of the bridge. Upon arrival, students should report to the gym or cafeteria. Please note, students should not be dropped off at the front office unless they arrive late, which is after 8 AM. Thank you!
TARDY INFORMATION
- TARDY TO SCHOOL/CLASS? Tardy to school will be defined as arriving to school at 8:00 AM or later. Any student arriving to school after 8:00 AM must report to the attendance window to sign in for the day. Failure to sign-in could result in disciplinary action. It is the responsibility of the student to turn in all tardy notes to the attendance office.
- Excused Tardies: Students will not be penalized for excused tardies up to 5 times. After the 5th excused tardy, the student may be required to bring medical documentation, or the tardy will be classified as unexcused. The guidelines for excused tardies will be the same as for excused absences. Administrators may use discretion in dealing with extenuating circumstances.
- Unexcused Tardies: Consequences for unexcused tardies will be served, ranging from administrative detention to being referred to the Student Review Committee for long-term suspension/expulsion. Unexpected emergencies such as a flat tire, car trouble, overslept, etc. must be accompanied by a signed parent note. Students must produce a note within 24 hours, or this tardy will automatically become unexcused. Students will only be allowed one of these emergencies per semester
- Tardy to Class: Parents are contacted through the automated phone system if their student is tardy to any class. If a student misses one half or more of a class, they are counted absent. Any student arriving to 1st and 7th period over 10 minutes late (without an excused note), will receive a tardy and be referred to the appropriate administrator for skipping.

đź“•YEARBOOK INFOđź“•
The only way to guarantee that you will receive a yearbook is to pre-order it. They’re $65 until the end of first semester. At that point, they’ll increase to $75. Preorders will end on March 31, 2025.
In second semester, the price will go up. We do not over-order yearbooks to have extras for sale at the end of the year. You NEED to pre-order to ensure you get a yearbook. Payment plans may be coordinated with Mrs. Custer in A8 if you need to set one up. Yearbooks can be purchased with credit/debit cards at yearbookforever.com, or you can bring cash or check to Mrs. Custer in A8 before or after school. Buy early, save money! There are plenty of other things you will need to spend money on during your senior year. Save money whenever you can. Your parents will thank you for this!
Here is the website you can order from if you prefer not to purchase in person from Mrs. Custer.
