Sample Method: PowerSchool SMS calculates a daily code based on samples of period attendance code combinations that correspond to a daily attendance code. For example, PowerSchool SMS may assign a student a daily attendance code of "Absent" to a student if that student was recorded absent in period 1 and period 5. With the Sample Method, you must create a sample for every possible combination. This method is mandatory in a school that uses the Twice-daily attendance method. |
