Attendance

As Anna ISD plans for a safe return to all in-person instruction and continuity of services, it is important to revisit our guidelines regarding attendance procedures and truancy. In the event a student has a confirmed COVID diagnosis that student/parent will follow the procedures below:

1. Ensure the student has a device and/or hotspot for at-home use

2. Check Schoology for lesson plan guidance

3. Complete lessons as directed for all courses and/or subjects

4. Check-in with the teacher to address questions and needed support through e-mail

5. Parent /Guardian must submit a doctor's note for a confirmed COVID diagnosis and/or a parent note to excuse their absences.

ROUTINE ATTENDANCE PROCEDURES

• Require sick students and staff to stay home.

• No perfect attendance awards.

• Work with campus attendance clerks to assist families with attendance issues.

  • After two consecutive absences the attendance clerks will contact parents/guardians.

  • Weekly attendance letters are to be sent home.

  • Once a level two letter (5 unexcused absences) has been created for students, campus administrator contacts parents/guardians.

  • Timely Attendance Review Committee Meetings conducted.

TRUANCY

• • The minimum attendance for class credit rule of TEC, §25.092, will be in effect for the 2021–2022 school year. Students are required to attend at least 90% of their classes (with some exceptions) to receive credit and be promoted.
