Attendance on the Report Card
Attendance will be included on report cards starting with the Trimester 1 report cards. Attendance will include both absences and tardies. A few notes regarding attendance:

-In elementary, accurate attendance will only appear in your “Homeroom” (this is the class that is not labeled with a subject and teachers assign their ABC standards). In your math and ELA classes, you will see an attendance line but they will always say 0 since attendance is only linked to that one class.

-In middle school, you will see attendance for all class periods meaning if a student has three tardies in period 1 and two tardies in period 2, you will see that information in each class.

-Attendance is only for active classes, meaning if a student moved classes mid-trimester, it would only show the attendance for the class they are getting a report card for. An example would be if a student had two absences in their 2nd-period math class but then moved to a different math class on September 15, only the absences from September 15 until the end of the trimester would be on the report card. All absences are still stored in PowerSchool.

-Because report cards only show attendance for active classes the following message will be included on the report card: Attendance records for dropped classes are not included on this report card.
