Attendance 

Students & Parents Process

• Beginning Monday, April 20, 2020, students/families will be responsible for recording their attendance each day.
• ALL teachers will be provided with a link from their building principal to post in their Google Classroom/Canvas for students to be able to access.
  • Students will click the link ONCE per day to record their attendance for that day.
  • Students are NOT required to record their attendance for each class.
  • Teachers are encouraged to remind their students to record their daily attendance within their weekly updates.
• Attendance secretaries will email the link community-wide every day at the start of each school day.
• If a student is absent, parents/guardians can reply to the attendance secretary reporting the absence. Those who do not fill out the Form will be marked absent; excused absences should be emailed to the attendance secretary.
• Each school day, students and / or parents will access the link to the Attendance Form, and enter a valid email address (students are encouraged to use their school address), and their student ID number.
  • Attendance is being recorded from 12:00AM to 11:59PM on a school day. Students and parents CANNOT record attendance in advance - this must be completed each day.
  • Parents / guardians of multiple CR children MUST complete this Form once for each of their students; students CANNOT be combined into a single record.
  • The Attendance Form needs to be completed once each day in order for a student’s presence in Distance Learning days to be recorded; however, no issues will occur if a student and / or a parent records the attendance several times.
• If students do not know their student ID number, families can log into HAC, click the registration icon, click the demographic tab, and in the top left corner is the student ID.
