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!) Try to enforce change with the school district or just don't follow the policy at all if you don't want to right up that many students.
