Note from principal

Charger Nation,

We wanted to share the district attendance policy updates with everyone.  In short, students need to complete 5 activities in each class to receive 100% attendance for each class for the week.  If a student only completes 4 activities in a class, that teacher will enter the absence on a Friday and not on the specific day they were absent as the chart below reflects.  We are all learning together.  Charger Strong!

Secondary-specific Guidelines

Each teacher will be responsible for taking attendance for their course. Secondary students will be required to complete a minimum of one instructional activity per course per day, or five per course per week in a week with no holidays, to be considered fully present for that course. This includes advisory courses.

On Mondays, teachers will be able to see on the dashboard the number of activities their students completed in their course in the previous week. Five activities in a full week = 100% attendance. A full period absence is recorded for every activity less than five a student completes, and absences are recorded starting Friday moving backwards through the week. (see the table below). For example, four activities = 80% attendance = 4 days full attendance and one full period unexcused absence on Friday.

Did you know that you can see your student’s Canvas Page without asking them to log in? Follow these steps to create an account paired with your students so you can monitor their activities. You will need to complete these steps for each of your students courses.
