Tardies

Truancy Steps

Tardies are counted in students' attendance records, even missing a few minutes a day has a negative effect on their learning. A student who enters the classroom late is interrupting the other students and is cheating themselves out of class and instructional time.

• Set a regular bedtime

• Lay out clothes and backpacks the night before

• Develop a back-up plan for getting your child to school if something comes up
