[quote=Anonymous]If anyone needs to be told by the police to have their kids on time to school it is these people. I am sure a "mandatory" conference or a $5 fine would do nothing to change their behavior. We have one of the families before in a 3rd grade class. The problem with the late entrance was that it disrupted class. The teacher would take maybe 3-5 minutes when the child entered to open the door (mobile so the door was locked), kid put stuff away, get stuff out, teacher telling him where the class was, etc. This happened 3-4 times a week. This meant that the class was missing around 20 minutes of instruction a week-- every week. The child was finally told that they had to wait in the principal's office until the teacher would call down for him when they were changing subjects. The mom was really nice and always tried to figure out how the other mother's (who may way more kids than she did) were able to get to school on time. So weird.[/quote]
