The BIE Adverse Attendance Conditions Report provides a way for states to report the impact adverse weather and road conditions have on student attendance. Information provided by this report may assist with federal funding procurement and distribution, busing changes and other necessary transportation changes to meet the needs of students affected by adverse weather and road conditions.

This report only considers students absent 50% or more of their scheduled school day with an attendance record tied to the following BIE Attendance Codes:

  • AWC: Adverse Weather Conditions
  • ARC: Adverse Road Conditions

The BIE Adverse Attendance Conditions Report is only available in State Edition sites. 

BIE Adverse Attendance Conditions Report

Report Logic

This report uses the following logic:

Students:

  • Student has a primary enrollment in the reporting calendar
  • Student must have a NASIS ID
  • Enrollment must not marked BIE Exclude 
  • Enrollment must not be marked No Show 
  • Enrollment Start Date and End Date must not be the same
  • Student's attendance must have been included in the Aggregated Attendance calculations
  • Unlike other BIE reports, all students (regardless of their enrollment type) will be included in the report assuming all other criteria has been met

School/District:

  • Attendance Codes are mapped to BIE Attendance Codes ARC and AWC for all calendars
  • DIS is enabled and synced

Calendar:

  • Calendar must be marked as BIE Type I:Instructional
  • Aggregate attendance MUST be calculated for the calendar to be included in reporting
  • Calendars marked as 'Excluded' will not report
  • Calendar dates falling outside of the date range entered in the BIE Adverse Attendance Conditions editor will not report
  • Calendars where one or less days are marked Instruction will not report

Aggregate Attendance Calculation:

The following aggregate attendance logic applies for adverse attendance calculations. A student who's attendance has not been aggregated will not be included in the reports.

For each day a student is enrolled, aggregate attendance calculations will:

  • SUM the total number of minutes the student is scheduled (rostered). The following requirements must be met for scheduled minutes to be included in aggregate attendance calculations:
    • Course must be marked for attendance
    • The period must be instructional
    • The day must be marked for attendance

Lunch minutes, future dated attendance records and exempt absences are not included in aggregate attendance calculations. 

  • SUM the total number of minutes the student is absent (Status = Absent; Excuse = Excused, Unexcused or Unknown).
    • This calculates by subtracting the Present minutes on the period from the total number of absent minutes
  • SUM the total number of days the student is scheduled (rostered).

Comparing the total number of minutes the student is scheduled for a day against the total number of minutes the student is absent for a day, federal days absent is identified as the number of days a student is more than 50% absent.

Attendance calculations for this report will be aggregated for students who have an enrollment in multiple calendars.

Generate a Report

Before you start, consider the following. 

  • On a weekly basis, district-level data is automatically synced to the state. To capture attendance changes happening between syncs, a state administrator might consider manually running the Resync State Data tool to reflect more up-to-date data in attendance reports and chronic absenteeism calculations.
  • On a nightly basis, an automated attendance aggregation job processes the prior days attendance and recalculates the chronic absenteeism fields for each student. Because this job only looks at changes made to attendance fields the day prior, backdated attendance changes may not be included.  To ensure all attendance data (including any backdated changes) are included in the attendance aggregation, recommend to your districts they periodically run the Attendance Aggregation Refresh tool.

If both tools are used for the purpose of reflecting the most up-to-date attendance at the state level, Attendance Aggregation Refresh should be run first followed by the Resync State Data tool.
