PSSR-316816

Report Updates for ADA Period Remote Class Attendance

Campus Summary: Version 23.5.1

Student Detail: Version 23.5.1

TREx Extract: Version 23.5.1

TREx Extract by Student Number: Version 23.5.1

TX Interchange Student Attendance: Version 23.5.1

The attendance reports are updated with logic to include attendance from classes flagged as “Remote ADA Period Class” in the edit detail page for student class enrollments (All Enrollments).

  • The prior need to create placeholder classes to record attendance for remote classes taken during the home school ADA period is eliminated as long as the remote class is identified with the “Remote ADA Period Class” checkbox.

  • If a student is enrolled in a remote class at another building during the ADA period at the student’s home school, TEA-reportable attendance is now sourced directly from the remote class.

  • If the student has a class scheduled during the home school ADA period, there is no change and the attendance recorded for that class is used.

  • On any instructional day where the student lacks an ADA period class or a Remote ADA period class, the day is counted as a Day Taught, but the student receives neither present nor absent attendance for that day.

  • On any day that is not an In-Session day (instructional day) at the student’s home school, the attendance is not considered as a Day Taught, Present, or Absent in order to prevent TEA fatal errors.

  • Schools are advised to use the PEIMS Error Check > Student ADA > Missing ADA Period Class to identify any gaps in the student’s schedule where the student has no ADA period class at the home school or at a remote school.

  • Note: The Texas Attendance Verification Report will be updated with the same change in the subequent state reporting release.
