Students who do not report for detention or who accumulate five unex- cused tardies are suspended for one day. The parents’ concerns surfaced several weeks ago when a student was tardy because of car trouble. Her ‘mother reportedly called the school to report that her daughter would be late but the tardy was not excused. Supt. Bob McRae said car trouble is not an excused tardy because it would be too difficuit for school per- sonnel to verify if every car trouble excuse was legiti- mate. Also Monday night, the board will reorganize for the coming year by naming a chairman and vice-chair- man. Ronnie Hawkins has served as chairman and Priscilla Mauney as vice-chairman during the current year. ] The board will also hear a presentation by Denise man, said volunteers are encour- aged to complete their solicitation work as soon as possible.
