High school senior never missed a day of class in 13 years

RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - A Rapid City teen who will soon graduate has quite a record.

Central High School senior Tyler Cameron has never missed a day of classes his 13 years in the school system. Cameron says he’s never been sick enough to skip a day and considers his attendance key to academic success. He says perfect attendance leads to a better education, a better job and a better life.

KOTA-TV (https://bit.ly/2qvMTw6 ) reports Cameron has already taken 10 courses at Western Dakota Tech and hopes to earn a criminal justice degree.

Although Cameron has never missed a day of school, he was tardy one time. That’s when he had a fender bender accident recently on the way to school. His tardy was excused.
