Student athletes deserve every opportunity to be successful, said Batavia High School Athletic Director Micheal Bromley at Tuesday evening's Batavia City Schools board meeting, which is why the district needs a tighter tardy policy for those students participating in school sports.

About 54 percent of Batavia's students are involved in athletics during at least one season of the school year, so a stronger tardy policy will have a positive impact on academics overall, Bromley said. 

"We want our students to be successful," Bromley said. "To be successful, they need to be in school."

The proposed policy will require student athletes to be on time for their first class of the day. If they're even five minutes late, it's a tardy. They get two freebie tardies during the season. A third tardy means they can't participate in the next practice or athletic event.

Currently, there are no consequences if the student arrives by at least 11 a.m., which means they miss the first two blocks of classes.

There were seniors this year, Bromley said, who were in danger of not meeting academic standards for graduation.

Bromley thinks the change this fall will be a big adjustment for students and their parents. He expects some push back but wants to deliver the message that this policy will help students and their teams succeed.

"We want you to be here," Bromley said he would tell the students. "We want you to represent our school. It's a great honor. With that comes responsibility. Athletics teaches life skills and life skills include being on time, being responsible, being respectful to your coach and your teammates by doing the right things."

The need for a policy change arose, Bromley said, because of frustrations expressed by coaches and teachers.

Many teachers questioned how students could represent the school in athletic events while not showing up regularly to classes, he said.

"We're not trying to be mean here," Bromley said. "We just want people to be here. Teachers are very frustrated when students don't show up for the first block of the day."

School board members responded favorably to the new policy, which was crafted by a committee of school officials who looked at policies from several area school districts before crafting the one presented to the board.

The policy is intended to be both stricter than what exists now, but also flexible. The two freebie tardies recognize that things happen -- cars break down, assignments are forgotten at home and need to be retrieved, family members get sick and hold things up, etc., but student-athletes also need to be held accountable if they want to faithfully represent the community in competition.

The policy will be evaluated during the fall, comparing this fall's data with data from previous fall seasons to see if tardiness is reduced and attendance is improved. If the policy works and is refined, it could be rolled out to cover students participating in other extracurricular activities.

Policy summary:

• Student athletes will get two free tardies each sports season, fall, winter and spring.
• A third tardy will result in the student not being allowed to participate in his or her team's next athletic event, be it practice or game.
• A tardy can be excused by a doctor's note; parental notes will not be accepted as an excuse.
• The tardy clock begins as soon as the bell rings for the first class of the day.

Press release from the Genesee County Sheriff's Office:

The Governor has signed into law amendments to the Vehicle and Traffic Law extending the current "Move-Over" law which require drivers approaching stopped police, emergency or hazard vehicles with their lights flashing to slow down and, if on a divided highway, to move over at least one lane away from that vehicle if traffic conditions allow. Below is a summary of these amendments, which become effective Jan. 17 (180 days after new law was signed).

It is important to understand that the purpose of this law is to increase the safety of those people who are working on the shoulder and along the edge of the road. Slowing down and putting distance between your passing vehicle and people in close proximity to any road increases the time you have to react.

However, moving over should never endanger others on the highway. Sudden movement or braking in an attempt to "move over" when it is not safe to do so must be avoided. When you see emergency or hazard lights ahead, immediately assess the traffic around you and plan a safe and gradual movement while using proper signals.

Our roads and highways are a wonderful convenience but they are also one of the most dangerous places to be. Please put away all distraction and concentrate on the very serious task of driving.

Chief Deputy Gordon Dibble

From the Law Offices of Mark C. Butler, PLLC, Williamsville

Client Advisory Regarding New "Move Over" Law for Parked, Stopped or Standing Vehicles Displaying a Blue or Green Light:

Dear Client:

Yesterday (July 21) the Governor signed into law amendments to the Vehicle and Traffic Law ("VTL") extending the current "Move-Over" law, which requires drivers approaching stopped police, mergency or hazard vehicles with their lights flashing to slow down and, if on a divided highway, to move over at least one lane away from that vehicle if traffic conditions allow.

The new provisions extend that law to vehicles operated by volunteer firefighters and volunteer ambulance workers involved in roadside emergency operations, which are displaying revolving blue or green lights as authorized by law.

The law amends three sections of the VTL, principally section 1144-a by creating a new subsection (c) that requires in relevant part "Every operator of a motor vehicle shall exercise due care to avoid colliding with a vehicle displaying a blue light ... or a green light ... which is parked, stopped or standing on the shoulder or any portion of such highway. For operators of motor vehicles on parkways or controlled access highways, such due care shall include, but not be limited to, moving from a lane which contains or is immediately adjacent to the should where such vehicle displaying a blue light or a green light ... [that] is parked, stopped or standing to another lane..."

(The new law is included in Chapter 97 of the Laws of 2016.)

The letter continues...

Our counsel is that this new law should be read narrowly: that it applies ONLY to fire and EMS vehicles with an authorized blue or green light as the case may be which are PARKED, STOPPED or STANDING. This law does NOT apply to such vehicles while moving!

As with the original "Move-Over" law, a violation can result in a fine between $150 and $400 and/or up to 45 days imprisonment as well as DMV administrative penalities.

This is Booker Edgerson, a star cornerback with the Buffalo Bills in the 1960s.

When I told Edgerson that I'm a little rusty on my Bills' history because I'm a lifelong San Diego Chargers fan, he smiled and said, "then you must know Lance Alworth."

Of course, I know Lance Alworth. I used to watch Alworth play, though I was very young at the time.

"I'm the only man to catch Lance Alworth."

"You ran down Lance Alworth?"

"Yup, I ran him down."

In fact, Edgerson's Wikipedia page notes that he's the only man in NFL history to catch Alworth from behind.

"I played against him my whole career," Edgerson said. "We came into the league together. Man, he was tough to cover."

Edgerson was playing in a golf tournament Monday at Stafford Country Club to benefit the scholarship fund at Genesee Community College. He was one of five former Bills players, and former Lions player, who participated in the tournament. This is the first year for the tournament, but the planning committee is already talking about next year.

The only man to catch Lance Alworth ... that's quite a line on a professional football resume.
