Results

Starting 2nd Quarter, our school is putting a stronger focus on being on time to class. Arriving before the bell rings helps you get the most out of every lesson and keeps your day running smoothly.

Being late—even a few minutes—can mean missing important directions, class discussions, or the chance to get started on assignments. Plus, it can interrupt learning for everyone else.

Beginning this quarter, students who are tardy may face new consequences such as loss of privileges, detention, or required academic support time.

These expectations are meant to help everyone build good habits that lead to success in school and beyond.So set those alarms, keep an eye on the clock, and make being on time part of your daily routine—because every minute in class matters!
