[Teachldsseminary] QUES: Counting carpool students tardy?????

[Barbara Nelson]

I have a question about counting students tardy and want to know what other teachers do.  I have a Senior boy who struggles with mornings.  Last year he drove his brother to class.  This year, he drives his brother and 2 other students.  The other 2 students might not come if this young man did not pick them up.  Last year, I did not count his brother tardy unless they said it was the brother who caused them to be late.  I don't really want to start counting everyone late just because they ride with the Senior, but I don't want to enable the boy to be late all the time.  I have had him all 3     previous years of Seminary.  I have yet to see what motivates him.  He is a very responsible young man, but just isn't engaging himself in Seminary.  I am trying to really apply the teaching emphasis.  It seems that he isn't here about half the time or that he is asleep or very sleepy when he is here.  I am not sure how much he is getting.  Any suggestions? 
 Should I just count him as tardy, but not the other rs?  What can I do to help him see that his life will be blessed if he fully engages himself?  

He rarely come prepared with a devotional.  I have decided that next time he is not prepared with a devotional, I will ask him to share his testimony of the resorted gospel.

Thank you!
