I would definitely reach out to the parent in a respectful mannor. I would make sure to send an email requesting an conference at their earliest convince. During the conference I would let the parent know the importance of getting to school on time. I would let them know how much of a distraction it is for the whole class everyday when the child is coming in late and how much instruction time they are missing. I would remind the parent you are only reaching out because you have their child's best intrest at heart.

It is definitely appropriate to reach out to the parent or guardian about this issue. I would bring it up during a conference, or send a note home with the student. Explain that the student is missing valuable class time.

I've had students who didn't even come to school because their parent didn't want to get up to bring them on the rare occasion. When it becomes and reoccurring thing, it becomes an issue. Students can only miss a certain amount of days, but as teachers we all know that students missing just one day of school or being excessively late can be an issue. They miss out on so much by missing one day or by being late. This is definitely a conversation you should have with administration because it can become a legal issue when students are missing too much school. Also, have a conversation with the parent to see if you can arrange a routine so that they aren't late as often.

The best thing is to contact the parent(s). Understanding the situation of late arrival can be determined from the parent. The parent may have a more valid reason for his/her child is late or they may not know that their child is running late and this can be a issue the parent has to resolve with his/her child(ren).

Try setting up a conference with the parent and let her know about how her child's tardies or absences are affecting her education. Keep her aware of what she is missing out on when she comes in late or misses school. If this continues or parent refuses to comply, try talking to administration to see what can be done.

Honest communication with the parent/guardian is always the best place to start. If it continues and you see no support from home, I would speak to the guidance counselor about discussing this problem with the student and try to find a solution so that the student doesn't miss important class time.

Yes, say something to the parent. They need to be a parent. Or have administration say something. The time school starts is not a suggested time, but a time for the student to be there ready to learn. Does this mom just show up when she wnat to to her job? I hope not.

The first thing I would do is to conference with the student and remind them of the tardy/late school policy that the class and the school has. I would also ensure to document all the occurrences when the student is tardy/late to class that way its on file. The next action I would take is to conference with the student and the students' parents that way the parents are aware that this is occurring.

If it's the parent that is making the student late, there's a chance that talking to the parent may not do anything. I would reach out to the guidance counselor so we could both have a discussion with parent. If we don't see any change, I would do my best to work with the student, especially if it's not the student's fault. There may have to be another step tp take involving CPS but I thin that would be a last resort.

It might be important to have the Guidance Counselor involved immediately, just to provide feedback to you as the teacher and maybe to have a chance to talk with the student. It could be several issues, such as transportation, the parent working overnights, or taking care of loved ones. Nonetheless, it is important to know and be ready for any outcome and have possible solutions readily available. The guidance of a team is always helpful.

I think you should reach out to the parent, maybe set up a meeting with them. The school social worker may have already noticed this tardiness issue and might be in the process of reaching out and finding a solution. You could have a conversation with them and discuss possible solutions

Try and communicate with the parents. If the student is genuine in that they have no agency in arriving late then the best you can do is try and confirm it and also see if there cant be a workaround to the root of the problem.

Like a lot of other said, I would communicate this issue to the parent. I would explain how it disrupts the class and how extra time is needed for the student to catch up. If the issue continues, I would try multiple attempts to talk to the parent and then I would reach out to other teachers and administrators to see what they think is the next best course of action. Since tardies are counted, administrators should be informed but having a specific conversation about this student, would be helpful.

The first thing I would do is to conference with the student and remind them of the tardy/late school policy that the class and the school has. I would also ensure to document all the occurrences when the student is tardy/late to class that way its on file. The next action I would take is to conference with the student and the students' parents that way the parents are aware that this is occurring.

First, I would talk to the student. Make sure that they are okay and then ask about their tardiness. Then, I would email, call, or write a letter home to the parent to check on them as well. If the situation does not change, then I would get the administration involved because then it is the student who is suffering and not learning the material as best as they could.

yes, because that student is missing key classtime and the morning meetings and starting the day altogether.
