Tardy Policy:

In light of our school’s current academic standing and the need for accelerated instruction, your commitment to attending classes on time is of utmost importance. Punctuality is a crucial aspect of creating a positive and focused learning environment. Therefore, we have implemented a revised tardy policy to reinforce the importance of being on time for class. The policy is as follows:

  1. First Tardy - Verbal Warning
  2. Second Tardy - Verbal Warning and Parent Contact
  3. Third Tardy - After School Detention 
  4. Fourth Tardy - After School Detention 
  5. Fifth Tardy - Mandatory Saturday School
  6. Sixth Tardy - Overnight Suspension Pending Parent Conference
  7. Seventh Tardy - Enter ISS Step System

*After school detention will be held Monday-Thursday from 4:30 pm until 5:30 pm in the library concurrent with after-school tutorials. Failure to report to the after-school detention will result in an overnight suspension pending parent conference.

ELECTRONICS POLICY

Students may not display, turn on, or use a telecommunications device, including a cellular telephone, or other electronic device including apple watches, on school property during the instructional day, including during all testing. The use of cell phones in locker rooms or restroom areas at any time, while at school or at a school-related or school-sponsored event is strictly prohibited.  

A student who uses a telecommunications device, including cellular phones, during the school day will have the device confiscated. The parent or student may pick up the confiscated telecommunications device from the Principal’s Office or designee for a fee of $15. [*See policy FNCE]

School ID

Students must wear their campus school ID during the entire school day and while on any district vehicle or sponsored field trips.  The first ID will be given to students at no charge. Any student who does not have their ID on will be sent to the main office to purchase a new ID. Replacement ID’s are $5.00.  If the lanyard or case needs to be replaced it will cost $2.00 per item.  Students who do not have their ID will be referred to their campus administrator.
