StudentAttendanceSummary

StudentAttendanceSummary records are published for each student who is reported with a StudentPersonal record. StudentAttendanceSummary is calculated on each request and the sum of each day of attendance, membership, and absences is calculated, depending on the request. To fulfill the state requirements, the state may send a request with a specific end date, such as 10/1. The SIF Agent will calculate the data from the beginning of school until the date the state requests. For UnexcusedAbsences (truancies), the agent uses Attendance Tracking and Notification (ATN) in PowerSchool. To configure ATN, please contact PowerSchool Support.

Overriding

To override the automatic calculation of attendance, such as for Outplaced Students, a Student Attendance Summary record must exist for the student on the SAS tab of the State/Province page or the Student Attendance Summary report must be run. For the agent to use the manually created record, the School Year must be, for example, 2018 for the 2018-2019 year, and the Start Date must be the same as the student's Entry Date into the school.
