Teachers will take attendance daily, but the meaning of attendance changes—virtual learning attendance is more about engagement than physical presence.

 Attendance Guide for Teachers & Parents

Elementary Scholars

• Synchronous Online – Scholars attending school virtually will log in to the LMS during homeroom. Teachers will record attendance for the scholars and submit them to the office for input into the scholar information system by the office staff.
• Asynchronous Online – Attendance will be captured daily through engagement with the LMS.
• Asynchronous Offline (Print Assignments) – Attendance will be captured through a survey that will be accessible through Active Parent or Active Student. The survey will be active from 6:45 a.m.–5 p.m.
  
  

Secondary Scholars

• Synchronous Online – Scholars attending school virtually will log in to the LMS during homeroom. Attendance will be taken in the scholar information system during that time by the teacher.
• Asynchronous Online – Attendance will be captured daily through engagement with the LMS.

How Attendance Participation May Look:

• Attending video conference sessions.
• Participating in threaded discussions.
• Completing and submitting assignments (Note: Scholars without a device or connectivity will submit paper-based assignments.)
• Taking an assessment online and/or paper/pencil.
• Uploading a video.
• 1:1 communication via phone/email/Canvas or Google Classroom.
  
  

Elementary and secondary schools will use the learning management system for tracking scholar engagement and academic progress. All scholars are expected to have contact with their classroom teacher daily, and if that is not possible, the District will develop other means to check on families or scholars who do not regularly check in with their child’s teacher. The District will consider safe, welfare checks that maintain social distancing to deliver supplies and transfer paper-based assignments. The District may involve attendance officers and court action if attendance is not documented within five school days.

Asynchronous Learners Receiving Instructional Work Packets

In September 2020, we revised the attendance verification process for our asynchronous learners or students who receive instructional work packets. Parents, or students who are old enough to do it themselves, will complete an online survey each day for attendance. The two-question survey can be completed using any mobile device, such as a smartphone. For younger children, this survey should be completed by their parents. The link to the survey will be available daily in Active Parent and Active Student. The survey will ask for the student’s MSIS number and if they need assistance with their coursework. Schools will use the answers to provide support to scholars with learning packets over the phone.
