100 word rant: This new tardy rule is literally preposterous. OR Is being tardy THAT bad?

Sophia Nacu

Wait, I’m sorry.. Are tardies that bad? Really? Do students really deserve detentions for being a little late to class? There are a lot of factors that come into play when students become late. You could be having a bad day, struggling to find a parking spot, line in the restrooms, etc. I don’t think I understand it, and to put us on the spot and tell us all abruptly out of nowhere? So not fair. Calling it “tardy sweeps” makes it so intimidating and honestly I doubt that it’ll even happen. I mean, I don’t even care that much. It’s just a little annoying.
