School Attendance Policies and Procedures

In order to ensure that every child receives the instructional hours necessary to meet the grade-level culmination requirements, it is imperative that he/she arrive to school on-time and prepared to learn. Classes begin at 8:00 a.m. daily. It is strongly recommended that each student arrive on campus no later than 7:45 a.m. so that he/she can arrive in class prior to the sounding of the tardy bell.

Student records related to attendance and tardiness are maintained for the entire school year and are cumulative per semester. Individuals who demonstrate a pattern of tardiness will be subject to the following progressive disciplinary measures:

• 1st , 2nd and 3rd Tardy Warning
• 4th Tardy 30 min. lunch detention assigned for this and every subsequent tardy
• 5th Tardy Conference with grade-level counselor
• 6th Tardy Phone conference held with parent/guardian
• 7th Tardy Issuance of 2nd Attendance Policy letter
• 8th Tardy Parent conference scheduled
• 9th Tardy Parent Shadow scheduled
• 10th Tardy Referral to PSA Counselor

 

*Any student with more than ten (10) tardies to Homeroom will be referred to SARB
(School Attendance Review Board) and/or a local law enforcement agency for additional intervention.

We look forward to working with you and your child in the coming year in an effort to collectively
ensure that he/she performs at his/her greatest potential. If you have any questions regarding Paul Revere Charter Middle School’s attendance policy, please contact either your child’s counselor or the Student Services Office at (310) 917-4882.

Thank you in advance for your efforts toward fostering your child’s growth and success.

Sincerely,
Dr. Shuntell Anthony
