Tardy Policy Reminder
In order to be college and career ready, it is important to be on time!
Here is a reminder of the MHS tardy policy:
- 1st Tardy: Verbal warning
- 2nd Tardy: 10-minute detention with the teacher (must be served within 2 days) and parent contact; administration will be notified through Educlimber.
- 3rd Tardy: Teacher will submit an IC office referral. Administration will meet with the student, assign an after-school detention, and contact the parent.
- 4th+ Tardy: The teacher will submit an office referral in Infinite Campus (IC), and administration will determine appropriate consequences at their discretion.

Study Tips
- Use AI to your advantage, but use it wisely to study.
- Split big projects or research papers into smaller steps, such as finding sources on day one and drafting an outline on day two.
- Test your memory instead of just rereading notes. Close your book and try to write down or speak the main concepts. Tools like Quizlet or Anki can help you build digital flashcards.
- Don’t wait until the last minute to study for a test, start studying a week or two in advance.
- Study in increments of about 20-30 minutes and take a 5 minute break in between to reduce the stress on your brain.
