Purpose:

District policy states that if a student comes to school at any one point during the day – even for only a minute – that student is counted as present on that date. Therefore, assign a Present daily attendance code to those students that attend school either in the morning, in the afternoon, or all day.

Purpose:

Our school uses custom "Absent/Present" and "Present/Absent" daily codes to track morning and afternoon attendance.

Therefore, separate rules calculate morning and afternoon kindergarten classes, as well as for students that attend all day.
