Help us in honoring them for their hard work and dedication to our students. They are indispensable, inspiring and invisible!
Good luck on your finals this week Seniors. This is the last week in classrooms for our 12th graders.

Tardy Intervention Plan - Be On Time, All The Time
Last semester we initiated our, “Be on time, all the time,” initiative. This was aimed to address the high amount of tardies and to stress the importance of being responsible for our educational time. This semester we are adding a schoolwide hall pass policy to further support our goals and school safety. The policy is as follows:
- · Guidelines
- · No pass first and last 10 minutes of class
- · No phone use while on pass (turned in to teacher/leave in backpack)
- · One student per pass
Consequences for misuse or not having a pass
- Lunch detention
- Parent & Student Meeting/ Behavior Contract
- Montezuma Hall (in lieu of suspension, in school intervention)
- AP Intervention
Restrooms
- 600 Boys & Girls open during passing period
- 300/600 Girls & 500/600 Boys open during Nutrition Break and Lunch
- Ensures full time staff supervision of restroom
An additional challenge is the amount of students who are extremely late (15 minutes or more) to Period 1. In a recent tardy sweep for Period 1, we had over 350 students late to begin the morning. Many of these students chose to purchase drinks from Starbucks and other local businesses prior to coming to school. To address that, we are going to gather some more data by doing the following for the week of January 17-20:
All students 15+ minutes late to Period 1 will enter through the main office
- Staff will require students to:
- Leave or throw away any beverages
- Show ID/Give name, ID,Grade, reason for tardy
- Warning slip issued as pass to get into 1st Period
