Dear Parents and Guardians,

At Dunbar, we believe that every minute of instructional time matters. We are asking for your support in making sure that your child arrives at school on time and ready to learn each day.

When students arrive late, even by a few minutes, they miss important parts of the instructional process. Teachers may already be giving directions, reviewing previous learning, introducing new material, or beginning classroom activities. Frequent tardiness can cause students to fall behind, disrupt the learning environment for other students, and make it more difficult for your child to stay on track academically.

Being on time also helps students develop important habits such as responsibility, punctuality, preparation, and accountability skills that will benefit them throughout their education and future careers.

We understand that mornings can sometimes be challenging. However, we encourage families to plan ahead, establish a consistent morning routine, and allow enough time for students to arrive at school on time.

Your partnership makes a difference. By ensuring that your child is at school and in class on time each day, you are helping us protect valuable instructional time and giving your child the best opportunity to be successful.

Thank you for your continued support and partnership in your child's education. Together, we can ensure that every student starts each school day prepared, focused, and ready to learn.

Sincerely,

Mr. Harris
