MY SCHOOL ONLINE ATTENDANCE
MSO will follow established District attendance protocols and procedures as defined in School Board Policy, 5200 – Attendance. Parents and students are responsible for attendance which shall be required of all students during the days and hours that school is in session.
While enrolled in My School Online, students are expected to:
Log into live sessions with their teachers each and every scheduled school day.
Attend online class as scheduled.
Be prepared to start online classes on time.
Demonstrate appropriate digital citizenship behavior while online.
Have your cameras on for attendance.
Wear your school polo shirt (Royal Blue or Burgundy) when attending a live session with your teacher.
SCHOOL ATTENDANCE/TARDY
Daily school attendance will be taken every scheduled school day during the
students’ first class of the day and/or the first period of the day.
Students will be counted in attendance if they log into the live sessions with
their teachers. Students will log into their teacher’s live session at the
beginning of the school day/first period of the day and must enable the
camera function on their computers so that the teacher can identify them.
Students who log into K12 to do their daily assignments but do not log into the
live sessions with their teachers may be marked as absent.
Students must log into their teacher’s live sessions with their teachers at the
time determined by their school. Students who do not log into the live sessions
with their teachers at the predetermined time may be marked as tardy. A
student is considered tardy to class if the student is not present at the moment
the attendance is taken.
EXCUSED/UNEXCUSED CLASS ABSENCE
Absences shall be reported to our registrar by the parent no later than five days from the date of the absence. Parents should submit documentation (a parent note) in the form of an email detailing the reason for the child’s absence from a day to [email protected]
