The Daily Attendance process at Elementary and K-6 schools is to change Unknown Absences marked by the teacher through the attendance module.  

When absences are marked by the classroom teacher, the absence type is considered 'unknown'.  This status changes when the attendance office applies the appropriate excuse or unexcused code.  Violations of this rule mean that there are absences that have been unknown for more than 5 days.  These absences should be changed to Unexcused (UNX). If there is documentation supporting another excuse code, process appropriately.

How to resolve violations


  • Review the Data Validation Results table in Certify.  Determine what date needs to be rolled.
  • On Infinite Campus Roll the attendance if the attendance for that day was not rolled to Absent Unexcused.

Path: Index > Attendance > Attendance Wizard


How to prevent future violations

  • Review the instructions for Daily Attendance (Elementary) on the Infinite Campus Dashboard.
  • Absent Unknown attendance must be coded within 5 days of date of attendance date.
  • Change all Absent Unknowns to UNX and all Tardy Unknowns to TTC through the Attendance Wizard throughout the day, at the end of the day, or the beginning of the following day.

(tick) Use the Attendance Wizard to change the unknown absences from the morning to unexcused absences for the entire day prior to the end of the day.
