Search Terms: Single Period Attendance

The Single Period Attendance Report displays any student who has only one scheduled, instructional, attendance-taking period in a day in which he or she is not marked absent, listing the student's name, number, grade level and period number, as well as course section information.

Students who have a verified single Present period should have the attendance code VP:Verified Present (Present/Excused) assigned to that period so the student does not continue to display on the report. Students who have a verified single Tardy period should have the attendance code VT:Verified Tardy (Tardy/Excused) assigned to the period so the student does not continue to display on the report.

This report is intended to be used with multiple period calendars and should be generated every week.

Single Period Attendance Report

Report Logic

The Single Period Attendance Report lists students with Primary Enrollments who have any days within the Date Range in which they have only one period of being marked present in all instructional, attendance-taking periods.

A student is considered present when:

  • There is no attendance code in the period.
  • There is an attendance code with a status of Present, Tardy or Early Release in the period.
  • There is an attendance code with a Status/Excuse of Absent/Exempt in the period.

Students marked as State Exclude, in a grade marked as State Exclude or in a calendar marked as State Exclude will not be reported.

A student is counted as present but will not report when:

  • The student's single period of presence has an attendance code of VP (Verified Present) entered.
  • The student's single period of presence has an attendance code of VT (Verified Tardy) entered.

A student is counted as absent if the attendance code is the teacher-entered "A" or a clerk-entered code with a Status/Excuse of Absent/Excused, Unexcused or Unknown.
