“Sorry I’m latte…”

“Sorry I’m latte… I should have taken the Espresso Lane. Good thing this wasn't a race, otherwise he'd have been thoroughly creamed by all of his friends.” Escuela Bella Vista students should take less time drinking their early morning coffee and instead, should come on time to school. On February 24, more than 50 students arrived late to Escuela Bella Vista. Dr. Rosie sent an email very dissapointed to the middle and high school students about how on February 22 only 10 students arrived late. That day, she sent an email congratulating everyone for promptness. In the email sent, she talked about how traffic cannot be blamed for being late and that the goal is not for students to be entering school at 8:00 am. Students are affected by being late because then they have to do the Daily Assessment in their time outside of school. In contrast in other cultures, Venezuelans don’t take being on time very seriously, which is why Dr. Rosie wants students to arrive early, to the teach them the importance of being on time. So if you are one of those students arriving late, don’t be the one to say “’I’M on time–everyone else is early.”
