PAYMENT FOR STUDENT ABSENCES a) For student absences beginning on the first day of quarantine or isolation consistent with public health protocol, when student’s symptoms allow for participation in instruction, CONTRACTOR shall receive payment consistent with the student’s approved ISA, contingent upon the provision of agreed upon services consistent with the Emergency Circumstances documented in the pupil’s IEP in accordance with Education Code section 56345(a)(9). In the event that a student's symptoms do not allow participation in instruction, they shall be considered absent due to illness.
b) Two accounting/billing options are offered at the discretion of the LEA: “Excused Absence” or “Positive Attendance.” In neither case will CONTRACTOR bill for any absences during Extended School Year (ESY).
