  Case: Late Arrivals
If a student has a doctor's permit or some other appointment and they are late that is one thing but what do you do with a student who arrives everyday with no excuse expect mom didn't feel like getting up. How do you handle this situation? Should me as a teacher say something to that parent?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
It might be important to have the Guidance Counselor involved immediately, just to provide feedback to you as the teacher and maybe to have a chance to talk with the student. It could be several issues, such as transportation, the parent working overnights, or taking care of loved ones. Nonetheless, it is important to know and be ready for any outcome and have possible solutions readily available. The guidance of a team is always helpful.
