The James Logan Courier

MISCELLANEOUS

Hey Logan! Did you know that since the beginning of school we have totaled more than 16,800 tardies. That’s 3600 for Freshmen, 5200 for Sophomores, 4900 for Juniors and 3100 for Seniors. That’s the same as each student at Logan having 4 tardies. Imagine if each tardy equaled one minute of class time lost…that’s 280 hours of learning lost. To improve our tardy situation, the Logan Tardy Roundups are back. Starting this week, and each week from now on, there will be random tardy roundups. If you get caught in one, that’s a phone call home and an hour of detention. If you hear the music, you know it’s on…so don’t be late!
