The total number of regular hours attended for students by grade level and school, rounded to four decimals, reported in the format 0000.0000.

Total Virtual Hours Attended

The total number of virtual attendance hours for the student is calculated based on the Course Completion Status:

  • If the student has completed the course then 94% or 95% virtual attendance is awarded. 95% attendance is awarded when the student is participating in an A+ program (Y) or the student has completed the A+ program (C) and the program code is 50 or 52.

  • If the student partially completed the course then 47% virtual attendance is awarded.

  • If the student course is incomplete then no virtual hours are awarded.

  • If the student's Course Completion Status is blank then the following calculation applies:
    • If the student was enrolled on the section midpoint date, the student will receive the 47% Virtual Award as entered in PowerSchool.

    • If the student was enrolled on the last day of the term for the school where the section is created, the student receives a 47% Virtual Award as entered. If the student was enrolled on both the Mid-point and the last day of the term, the student receives both awards, totaling 94% for the class (47% + 47% = 94%).

The Virtual Hours value for the course or section must be greater than 0.
