By Xamantha Williams<\/a><\/p>\n Student traffic in the halls and excessive tardiness have always been a colossal problems at Pueblo, but these problems escalated to new disturbing levels this school year\u2014due in part to a lack of security. Administrators and faculty here at Pueblo have been working diligently to resolve these issues throughout this first semester.<\/p>\n Monitors, too, are doing all that they can to ensure that students make it to their classes on time, but because we are short-handed two monitors at the moment, tardies are becoming excessive this school year. Currently, Pueblo has just four monitors, the least amount in recent years.<\/p>\n Ms. Nora Monge, one of Pueblo\u2019s monitors, said, \u201cIt’s so important for students to be on time to school and their classes. Tardiness definitely negatively affects grades, and being tardy shows a lack of responsibility and a lack of respect. Many students truly need to do a better job of getting to class on time. There shouldn\u2019t be anybody roaming the hallways.\u201d She paused and said, \u201cQuiet hallways mean that students are learning in their classrooms.\u201d<\/p>\n Teachers, too, are becoming increasingly extremely frustrated about the abundance of tardies.<\/p>\n “Students need to treat school like it\u2019s a job,” said Mr. Pete Pederson, who teaches graphic design and yearbook.\u201d He paused and added, \u201cWhen I was in high school, nobody was late. Students just weren\u2019t. Over the years, unfortunately, students have become very lax about tardiness.\u201d<\/p>\n While some students are excused for being absent and tardy, many others do not get excused\u00a0which sometimes leaves the tardy as an absence.<\/p>\n “Students need to know the rules of this school and take responsibility for their own actions and their own learning,” said attendance clerk and office manager Ms. Rosalie Sinteral.<\/p>\n Most students at Pueblo want their peers to be in class during class time and use their passing periods wisely and responsibly.<\/p>\n Senior Marissa Padilla said, “It\u2019s so frustrating when you’re in the hallway, and you see people standing and talking in the middle of a walkway while trying to get to class. I know how attendance is important and I try to always be on time.”<\/p>\n Padilla added, \u201cStudents need to remember why they are here at Pueblo.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Xamantha Williams Student traffic in the halls and excessive tardiness have always been a colossal problems at Pueblo, but these problems escalated to new disturbing levels this school year\u2014due in part to a lack of security.
