Student Daily Attendance
This object provides daily attendance information for a particular student in a particular school on a particular date.
Multiple instances of this object can be sent for each student daily. As this is a large number of objects, vendors can elect to send only the instances where the AttendanceCodeInfoRefId represents an AttendanceType other than “Present.” In these instances, the SIF_Event reporting will only reflect when a student is absent, tardy, etc. They will be assumed Present otherwise. Note: If the SIF_ExtendedElement (InSchoolSuspension) associated with this object indicates a “Yes”, the object MUST be sent regardless of what the AttendanceCodeInfoRefId represents. This will help to control the volume of SIF_Events locally for a district server. If desired, all SIF_Events, including “Present” can be sent as well.
It is expected that this data can be retrieved via a SIF_Request from the state at any time and that the SIF_Response will be able to include all StudentDailyAttendance records for all students regardless of the AttendanceTypeCode referenced by the AttendanceCodeInfoRefId for the current school year at minimum. OSDE may make a request similar to this on a weekend day when district servers will not be as likely to have the workload a normal week would place on them.
