Attendance Policy
Tardy Policy
Daily punctuality is necessary to avoid classroom disruption, maximize student learning, and is a basic principle of responsibility. All students are expected to be in the classroom when the tardy bell rings, prepared to work. The goal of Harding's tardy policy is to inspire daily punctuality, instilling it as a valuable life skill for our students.
