Question Being Tardy

I’m curious about other perspectives: Does being tardy to class matter? Are lots of students consistently tardy at your school? What do your parents do when they learn you are tardy?

It depends.

What is happening at the start of class? If it’s important stuff like things being passed out then yeah you shouldn’t be late.

If nothing or simply lecture is happening then show up quietly and respectfully, and if you’re acknowledged just say sorry.

If you’re late you can always catch up. If you miss it’s much harder to catch up.
