-
Students who are
present for at least 1 minute of class should be marked present
for attendance reporting. Students who are tardy should be marked
as such in the teacher’s records and should receive appropriate
consequences. Students should be referred to the Assistant
Principals when they accumulate 3, 6, 9, or 12 tardies. Three
tardies make an unapproved absence.
-
Students who are
absent for classroom field trips, school sponsored events, or
school achievement testing should be marked absent.
-
If there is a change
in the hourly attendance, the teacher can make the change via the
computer up until 2:30 pm. After that time changes should be reported
to the attendance assistant immediately. This can be done by
notifying the attendance assistant directly by phone (ext 5112) or
email (helmj@district87.org).
-
If the teacher finds
it necessary to have class in a room other than their regularly
scheduled room it is the teacher’s responsibility to report
attendance. The Student Affairs Office should be notified if a
temporary room change will be made and a note signifying the temporary
room change should be taped on the regular classroom door.
-
If a teacher is
absent, the daily attendance list must be accessible to the substitute
teacher. When attendance is being done by computer, the
switchboard/receptionist will provide the substitute teacher with an
attendance list.
-
Teachers are
responsible for taking the hourly attendance. This responsibility is
not to be delegated to students.
-
Morning white
verification sheets must be signed and returned to the
Student Affairs Office by the end of the first hour each day. If
changes need to be noted, the teacher should report these on the
verification sheet before returning them.
-
If there are any
questions concerning the attendance procedures, see the appropriate
assistant principal or attendance office assistant.
