Attendance Policy for Virtual Learning

All students whether participating in live classes or recorded classes, must check in with their teacher daily by submitting an assignment on the HUB, emailing with questions or scheduling a meeting with the teacher during tutorial time in order to be counted present for the class. Students are still required to be in class 90% of the time to receive credit for the course. High School students who have not logged in or connected with their teachers by 3:30 pm will be marked absent.

• This absence can be resolved if the student engages in daily learning assigned by their teachers via the HUB by 11:59 pm that same day. Parents and students will receive absence notifications via School Messenger after 6:00 pm each day and will be reminded of the opportunity to resolve that day’s absence if the student engages in learning before 11:59 pm of the same day via the HUB. Any absences recorded but resolved by the student before 11:59 pm on the same day, will be reconciled based on login records of the HUB.

 

• If a student is engaged in remote learning and completes the entire weeks’ worth of learning activities on Monday and does not log in for the remainder of the week, he/she will be marked “present” on Monday only and counted “absent” for Tuesday-Friday.
