Habitual Tardiness

The Bancroft-Rosalie Community School Student Handbook, page 9, states that “Students habitually late will not be allowed to disrupt class in progress and unexcused absences for that class will result.”

Next week students that have been habitually late for school this year will receive a letter stating that they will no longer be allowed to excuse tardies. Exceptions are for medical appointments that are pre-arranged at least one day in advance. Each unexcused tardy will require the student to stay after school that day for 30 minutes.

Habitual tardiness is defined as being tardy to school more than eight times. Tardy to school includes missing part or all of periods 1 and/or 2.
