Truancy letter from school, please help?

I am a sophomore at a California high school and I have excellent grades. This is my first time I've received a truancy letter.

The main reason I received this truancy letter is because I'm tardy to school all the time, in which I admit. And it's that one morning class that I am tardy to all the time.

What gets me mad and thinking is why does the school makes such a big deal out of it. I am a straight A student, I am hardworking during class and the teachers know that. Yes, I am tardy all the time but it's not affecting my grade in any way. So why can't they just go easy on student like me?

So my question, Will this truancy letter be on record? Will colleges see this? and Will there be truancy officer that's going to visit me to get me to school?

Any other information would be great. Thank you.

    This is the thing I am sure of at my school when anybody gets a truancy letter they do not send a Trunacy officer to their house we don't even have that. I know I didn't give you answers to all your questions but I don't want to give you false information to the other question. And again this is just my school.

    Your parents can end up in trouble as well. At least around here. And they ride you about it bc you can't expect to keep a job if you always arrive late. They are teaching you responsibilities. I wouldn't worry about someone coming to your home especially your first offense.
