Case: Tardy policies
My school district has a tardy policy. The policy is warnings the first three tardies, a parent contact on the fourth tardy, and a referral on the fifth tardy (and a referral on any referral after five). The problem is there are hundreds of students tardy to classes each block. So the office does not punish the students (other than conferences) stating they cannot punish hundreds of students. What can teachers do to fix this tardy issue?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Well, we have had this same issue at my school. We have implemented what we call "Tardy Hall". At the end of the bell, teachers are to lock their doors, and not let late students in. The administration team, including academic coaches, clear the hallways in what we call a "sweep". Any student in the hall after the bell is taken to a room where they are counted tardy and required to write an essay. Students are unable to leave tardy hall once the bell rings if they have not finished their essay. They sit separated, and are not allowed to talk. They were also still responsible for the work they missed in the regular classroom. After a couple weeks, students realized that the teachers and admin were not joking. The students got tired of writing essays and completing all of the work in the regular classroom. Now, they RUN to class. Teachers have to be careful to move out of the way because they do not like being late to class. We now have maybe 3 or 4 students late to class each period in a school of approximately 850 kids. |

| Comments: I do think that the solution is a good idea, however I think that it is not a good idea to require them to write essays because this causes them to miss crucial class instruction. Students will definitely learn their lessons but at what cost to their education? |

| Comments: I liked this solution. While the district may have a tardy policy, it might be true that teachers have difficulties keeping up with the numerous tardies. It is also probably true that if a student knows they will have to go and write an essay on top of the work they are missing, they will make sure to arrive to all classes on time. |

| Comments: Removing students from class completely is an unfair punishment for being tardy. This punishment may encourage kids to work harder to get to class, but they still miss out on instruction if they are late. I believe that the school might want to make some adjustments if students are struggling so much to get to class on time. |
