• Tardy Policy:

    WPMS welcomes students at 7:45 AM. Our car riders and walkers need to be in the building between 7:45 AM and 8:10 AM to avoid receiving a tardy violation. Students should be in their first class, ready to begin working at 8:20 AM each school day. 
    Any car rider or walker who is not in the building by 8:10 AM will be marked tardy to school. Students who are car riders or walkers and enter the building after 8:10 AM will not arrive to class before 8:20 AM due to the time it takes to get through the search process and transition to their classes. 
    Consequences for arriving tardy to school are as follows:  
    • 1st offense: Verbal Warning and parent notification
    • 2nd offense: Verbal Warning/Parent Contact to make them aware of after-school detention (and consequences for subsequent tardies)
    • 3rd through 5th offense:   After School Detention/Parent Contact.  A one-hour after school detention assigned and supervised by school staff; assigned one week to be served the next week. WPMS will host after-school detention from 4:00 PM until 5:00 PM. No transportation will be provided for students who are assigned detention. It is the responsibility of the student and the student’s parent(s)/guardian(s) to provide timely pickup and transportation home from an after-school tardy detention.
    • 6th offense:  Suspended pending parent conference; possible revocation of waiver, if applicable.
    • 7th offense and beyond:
      • 7th - 1 day of ISS
      • 8th - 2 days of ISS
      • 9th - 1 day of OSS
      • 10th - 2 days of OSS
      • 11th - Evidentiary Hearing
    Note:  Accumulation of tardies will restart each semester
