Tips for Success

Arrive to school early. Remember to leave time to pass through security, eat breakfast, put away your book bag or coat, and to feel ready to start the day off right!
Work bell to bell. When you enter the classroom, be prepared to learn and work your brain.

Use bathroom breaks wisely to avoid missing lessons and valuable work time during class.

Remember that the teacher dismisses you from class -- not the bell.
You're not late when you arrive to school or class after start time. You're late the moment that you don't leave home on time.
