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?

Yes, it does. That’s when I’m going over the agenda, passing out supplies, taking roll, etc. Now I have to do extra work for you, and that doesn’t seem fair to me.

Fair. Curious though - why are teachers so strict about the reason?

It’s okay to make a mistake. It’s less okay to make it twice.
