Any child who arrives after this time, will need a late note from the office in order to be admitted to class. After three occurrences of lateness, a detention will be implemented for grades 1-7. Any child who comes to school late because of a doctor's appointment, must have a note from the doctor, and that lateness will be excused. Thank you for your cooperation.
