Case: Tardiness
Self-contained classroom: Casey keeps coming to class late. The teacher has asked for her tardy slip. She did not have one, so she was sent back to the office. The assistance principle said that she was not going to be counted as tardy because it was her father\'s fault. The father has been having issues. The paraprofessional feels that there should be consequences for Casey. Her reasoning is that in the real world at a job, being late will not keep a job. Should there be consequences in the classroom for tardiness?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
This is a difficult situation because it's not necessarily Casey's fault that she is late, however you do not want Casey to think that what is happening is okay. The first thing that I would do would be to contact her father. I would discuss her tardiness with him and explain that she is missing out on valuable class time and instruction. Additionally, I would speak with Casey about her tardiness and establish a system where there will be consequences if she is tardy more than once in a week. This way, if there is truly an issue and her father is running late, you can let it slide once a week. If it happens more frequently, Casey could have a privilege taken away. Casey would then realize that being late is not okay, and I'm sure she would communicate with her father that she wants to be on time. |

| Comments: I agree that it should be made aware that it is not okay. But I do think it is not her fault and that punishing her would not be the correct solution at the time. |

| Comments: I think it is a great idea to talk with the father and explain how Casey's tardiness makes her miss important information during the class time. It is important for Casey to understand that being late is not okay but do like the idea of being "exempt" once a week but I wonder if the others students will think it is okay for them to be tardy once a week as well. It is a sticky situation but feel that you would have handled it the only way I could think of. |
