All teachers will enter attendance electronically in Infinite Campus.

  • Elementary teachers must have attendance taken by 9:30 a.m. every day (unless it is a half-day attendance course).

  • Secondary teachers must have attendance taken by the end of every period except for the last period of the day. For the last period of the day, attendance should be taken and submitted within 15 minutes of the end of the period.

The following are exceptions for entering electronic attendance:

  • Daily substitute teachers (not Building Substitutes) do not have access.

  • Teachers without access to a computer at the time attendance is required.

  • The student information system cannot be accessed due to power, network, or system outages. 

All teachers will use a paper roster in the event of an outage. Handwritten rosters or verbal attendance will not be accepted. The teacher will send a roster to the office (secondary teachers should send the roster before the end of each period).  Click here to learn how to print Attendance Rosters

All daily substitute teachers will have an Infinite Campus student roster generated for them by the building secretary. Once the attendance is recorded on the roster, it will be submitted to the secretary.

The secretary will enter the attendance through the Classroom Monitor and will file the attendance rosters in the appropriate daily attendance folder.

Teachers only have access to enter attendance for the current day.  They cannot enter or edit attendance for previous or future days. Teachers will be able to view attendance entered by the office but are unable to override that attendance.

If a teacher has an attendance correction for a previous date, they should request a correction be made by submitting the student’s information and the nature of the error to the secretary in writing (preferably email). The secretary will then make any necessary corrections according to Board guidelines.
