There should be no empty periods in a students' schedule. We have created many blocker courses to fill periods on the schedule when students are not in regular academic courses. These course numbers start with "N" and should already be loaded on your course deck. These can be used to denote where the student is during the duration of the school day when not in a traditional classroom setting. These blocker courses are available to use in every school; however, the course may need to have sections added before students can be scheduled. Cross enrolled students that do not attend their Home school due to a secondary enrollment to a program MUST be scheduled into the appropriate full-day blocker course at the home school. The schedule start date must match the secondary enrollment date. This can be found on the enrollment tab. |

Create a section of this course to span the entire school day, and schedule students into this course for attendance taking. This will take students off teacher rosters and will give you an accurate reflection of available seats. When scheduling a student in the NO SHOW course, use the next school day. This course is generally used when a student has not attended for two weeks, there has been no notification of illness, and staff are actively attempting to locate the student. While students are in this course, carry out appropriate attendance interventions per the Unable to Locate Checklist Form and log interventions on the student's Contact Log under the PLP module. An electronic withdraw request can be submitted via CCSDAS if all interventions on the Unable to Locate Checklist are completed or if a records request is received.
