Another result of 'Zero Tolerance' no room for common sese or flexibility. Those tardy rules were probably created for HS kids but adopted by every grade level.

But certainly this... I would start with a calm face to face meeting with the principal... escalate it with a demanded conversation with the super... and if need be, I'd fucking flip the fuck out in the office cause a scene and report this shit to the media, stage protests, the whole nine... Punishment is fine, but this is WAY too far. |

I just got back from a stern meeting with the principal. No choking, fist pounding or voice raising was necessary. He'll be eating the lunch I send with him tomorrow.
These people have no concept of a child having a life of importance outside of the school. For them there is only school and nothing else matters...its a really weird thing man, talking to these people that are so robotic and fake and their whole lives revolve around these asinine rules. As if learning that cigarettes and alcohol are bad for you is the most important thing that can happen in a day.

Can't speak on behalf of your kid's school in particular, but keep in mind that a lot of these stupid rules and practices trickle down from the board, the city, the state, etc and are often just as much of a headache for teachers and principals as they are students and parents. My wife is a teacher; she and her school's staff have to enforce all kinds of shit they don't agree with.

I've done that job. My wife still does. It isn't that cut and dried.

And, how exactly do you enforce this by repeatedly having him tardy without ramifications? What solution would you provide to the issue?
