As stated in our handbook: “GENERALLY, TARDINESS IS UNEXCUSED.” Car trouble, late start in the morning, traffic, etc. will no longer be accepted as legitimate reasons to be excused for being late to school in the morning. Sometimes, however, there will be some special cases in which a tardy situation in the morning is excused, but these are administratively determined on a case-by-case basis. Starting on 10/14/14 all calls for tardiness in the morning (to the school office or to the attendance line) will be treated as unexcused unless notified otherwise. This change will bring the MS into alignment with K-12 practices on Hawaii campus. Any questions or concerns about this change can be directed to Mr. Chow at 982-0435.
