BIE Consecutive Days Absent Report

Current Path: BIE Reports > BIE Consecutive Days Absent
New Look of Campus: Reporting > State Reporting > BIE Consecutive Days Absent

The BIE Consecutive Days Absent report is used to identify BIE students who have been consecutively absent from school for an uninterrupted period of time. Students who are absent from all of their scheduled instructional periods for the entire day are eligible to report. Students may report each time an instance of a consecutive absence occurs within the date range entered. Future dated attendance marks are excluded.

This report uses aggregated attendance data that has been synced to the state. The following attendance excuse codes are considered:

  • Excused
  • Unexcused
  • Unknown

This report is available in BIE NASIS State Edition only.

BIE Consecutive Days Absent Report editor


Before you start, consider the following.

  • On a nightly basis, an attendance aggregation processing job runs at the district-level to update the aggregated attendance data (used in attendance reports and ad hoc for NASIS State Edition sites) to include the prior days attendance. 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.
  • On a weekly basis, district-level data is automatically synced to the state. To capture attendance changes happening between syncs, an administrator might consider manually running the Resync State Data tool to reflect more up-to-date data in attendance reports and aggregated attendance fields in ad hoc.

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. 

Report Logic

This report uses the following logic.

Student

Students will not report if:

  • they do not have a NASIS ID
  • their attendance has not been included in Aggregated Attendance Calculations
    • future dated attendance marks will not be included in aggregated attendance calculations
    • future dated enrollments will not be included in aggregated attendance calculations
  • their Enrollment Type is 3: Public Enrolled
  • their enrollment is marked as No Show
  • their enrollment start and end dates are the same
  • their enrollment is marked as BIE Exclude
  • they have not been absent for the entered amount of days in the report editor's Consecutive Days field
  • their absence is not considered full-day absent

Calendar

Calendars will not report if:

  • calendar was marked as Excluded
  • calendar days have not synced (System Admin > Calendar > Days)
  • Calendar Type is not one of the following:
    • I: Instructional
    • S: Summer School
    • 21: 21st Century
  • attendance aggregation calculations have not been completed for the calendar

Attendance

The following attendance requirements apply:

  • only aggregated attendance data will be used
  • attendance must be synced to the state
  • students absence from school must be for a full day
    • A full day absence is determined by comparing the student's absent minutes for the day against their total scheduled daily minutes. 
      • Example: if the student is scheduled into 6 instructional periods and is marked absent for all 6, the student is considered full-day absent.
        •  If a student was present in an instructional period and left, AND the Check-out mode was used in the Attendance Wizard to record the student's departure, the student will not be considered full day absent because of their present minutes. Present minutes display in the student's attendance record on the Attendance tab.
  • future-dated attendance marks are excluded

FieldDescription
Consecutive Days
Required
The duration of time a student's absence from school (for any reason) must span without interruption. Only full-day absences are included.

Students may report multiple times if multiple instances of consecutive days absent occur within the date range entered. 
Example: 3 is entered in the Consecutive Days field for the date range of 9/1/2020 - 4/1/2021. 
A student has been absent for a full-day on the following days:
  • 10/5/2020-10/8/2020 (4 days) - eligible to report
  • 12/3/2020-12/11/2020 (7 days) - eligible to report
  • 02/02/2021-02/03/2021 (2 days) - not eligible to report

In this example, the student will report twice.
