Arriving to school on time has a positive impact on learning!

We have noticed an increase in students arriving tardy to school.  On Monday, we had over 70 students tardies!!!

The school day begins at 8:45a. When the bell rings, learning begins! Students who arrive after 8:45a are marked tardy.

Let’s work together to start the day off right and get to school on time! 

Why is being on time to school important?

Research indicates that arriving to school on time is strongly linked to improved academic performance, better attendance, reduced tardiness, increased alertness in class, and even positive impacts on mental health.

Being late to school can negatively impact a student’s academic performance by causing them to miss important information at the beginning of class, disrupt the learning flow for other students, and potentially lead to lower grades and a decreased likelihood of graduation, especially if tardiness becomes a regular habit; it can also signal a lack of responsibility and time management skills, which could affect future career opportunities.

What can you do?

To ensure your child arrives at school on time, establish a consistent morning routine, plan outfits and pack backpacks the night before, set multiple alarms, designate responsibilities for your child, and consider meal prepping to save time in the mornings; always factor in extra time for unexpected delays and communicate with your child about the importance of punctuality.

Hello Timberwolves,

We are now in week 3 of 10 of Q3! Let’s model excellence and The Timberwolf Way showing safety, respect, and responsibility at Wolf Canyon. 

There’s a light chance of rain this week on Monday. Please remember that on rainy days, the dismissal process may take longer than usual. We encourage you to plan ahead and remember to always follow traffic laws and rules. We appreciate your patience and flexibility as we all do our best to ensure our students’ safety. 

Character Trait for January: FOCUS.
