Evaluating a School Punctuality Policy
A high school is experiencing a persistent problem with students arriving late. To address this, the administration proposes a new policy: any student arriving more than 10 minutes late to their first class without a valid excuse will be charged a $5 fine. The administration argues this will create a clear deterrent. Critically evaluate this proposal. In your response, analyze both the intended effects and the potential unintended consequences on student motivation and behavior regarding punctuality. Conclude with your judgment on the policy's likely long-term effectiveness.
