Fifth Day Attendance and Enrollment Verification

Introduction/Purpose: This document explains the process each school will use to update attendance and enrollment during the first five days of school. The attendance and enrollment numbers generated via this process are used the District Administration and School Board to consider a student growth based emergency levy.

Take Attendance
Teachers are to take attendance as early as possible in the day or period.

Verify Enrollment
Building Administrators or authorized designee will begin calling families of students who are not present. A physical count is not necessary since families of all students who have not attended school will be contacted.

Update Schoolmaster
Assuming contact is made with the family update Schoolmaster appropriately:
 * If the student is not returning – Exit the student from Schoolmaster
 * If the student is returning – leave the student enrolled and marked absent
 * If contact is NOT made with the family before 2:00pm on August 27, 2014, the student should be exited from Schoolmaster as of August 20, 2014 .'''

Steps 1 – 3''' are to be repeated for each of the first five days of school and until all students who have not attended school have been contacted or removed from the system. The first five days of school for the 2013-2014 calendar year are:
 * Thursday, August 21, 2014
 * Friday, August 22, 2014
 * Monday, August 25, 2014
 * Tuesday, August 26, 2014
 * Wednesday, August 27, 2014

Reporting
Attendance and Enrollment reports will be run for each school by the SIS manager at 3:30pm on each of these days, and reported to District Administration and the School Board.
