Common use of ATTENDANCE GUIDELINES Clause in Contracts

ATTENDANCE GUIDELINES. In reviewing a student’s final attendance average, the entire attendance history (grades 9-12) is considered and is based on Monday through Friday attendance when school is in regular session. Any student appropriately counted for average daily attendance will be considered in attendance, whether physically present or not. Summer school attendance is NOT included. A senior who chooses to be an Early Leaver/Graduate may not have enough days of attendance accumulated to meet the 95% attendance requirement. The A+ Program makes no distinction between Excused and Unexcused absences. All unexcused and many excused absences, including those which a parent or school official is aware of in advance, count against the student’s attendance average. A doctor’s note for an excused absence for colds, flu, strep, or other short-term illnesses does not automatically qualify a student to have that absence waived. The 95% vs. 100% requirement is meant to cover those routine visits and incidents. The following absences DO NOT count against the student’s attendance average for A+ purposes: school-sponsored activities; pre-approved, documented college visits; SPS district-provided Homebound Instruction (a minimum of 10 consecutive days are required to apply for this); and SPS district-approved disability accommodation plans (504 plan). Students may appeal attendance out of compliance (building) decisions with the (district) Site A+ Attendance Appeals Committee. All appeals must be filed with the building A+ Coordinator 10 days prior to the first Monday in December and the first Monday in April of the student's graduation year. Attendance appeal forms, protocol and requirements can be found on the building and district’s A+ webpages. Documentation from the appropriate agency is required for an A+ attendance appeal and should include specific dates, times and appropriate signatures. The following are examples of absences that could rule a student ineligible for an attendance appeal: elective, skip, truancy, and/or late absences. The following are examples of absences that could qualify a student for an attendance appeal: catastrophic illness/injury/event with student or immediate family. Immediate family includes all members of the student’s family who reside in the same location as the student and/or persons approved by the A+ Attendance Appeals Committee.
