There will be times when a student is unable to participate in learning activities due to illness or other
reasons (all day medical appointment, college visit, job shadow, travel, etc).
When you Need to Report:
Please consider these guidelines to determine when you will need to call the main
attendance office to report an absence:
● Student is too ill to log in, connect, engage in any learning opportunities for an entire day or portion
of the day (excused absence due to illness).
● Student is unable to log in, connect, engage due to other allowable excused absences.
● Student has an appointment that is longer than one-half of the scheduled school day and will not be
able to log in, connect, engage due to other allowable excused absences
**Note: Enhanced Virtual students should report their absence to their home school office.
When You Do Not Need to Report:
Below are some scenarios that will not require you to report your absence
to the main attendance office but it is strongly suggested that you communicate with your child’s teacher:
● Student has an appointment for less than half of the scheduled school day but will still be able to
log in, connect, engage and participate in learning activities.
● Student has mild illness symptoms but can still log in, connect, engage and participate in learning
activities.
● Your family is traveling but your student is still able to log in, connect, engage and participate in
learning activities.
