Wolfpack Weekly Grades 7 - 8

AGCS 7-12 Families,

We want to take a moment to share important information about your child’s school attendance for students in grades 7-12. Please take a moment to review our procedures regarding tardies:

• Per the student handbook, students are considered tardy at 7:35. We allow a 3-minute grace period, extending this time to 7:38.

• Students arriving to their first block class after 7:38, regardless of when they arrived on campus, will be considered tardy to school.

• Tardies will be considered to be unexcused unless a doctor's note is provided. Any student that has over 10 cumulative medical absences will require an administrative meeting for further medical absences to be considered excused.

• We will attempt to notify you if your child hits 3 tardies. On the 4th tardy, families will be notified via talking points if their child has reached 4 tardies and are required to serve a lunch detention.

• Students will receive an after-school detention for each tardy for their 5th through 10th tardies.

• Students will receive a Saturday detention for their 11th tardy.

• A Parent/Guardian meeting will be scheduled after a student's 11th tardy.

• All detentions will be held Monday-Thursday from 2:20-3:10.

By implementing this plan, we hope to reduce late arrivals, which significantly impact school resources and student learning.

Thank you for taking the time to review this with your child,
