[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][QUOTE]Attendance: Absences from skipping class disqualify for make-up work.[/QUOTE]

How on earth does MCPS plan on identifying, assessing and discerning which absences are legitimately due to skipping and not errors on their part due to subs not knowing how to take attendance, teachers forgetting to do attendance, or tardies being mistakenly marked as absences?

There's no way they have the scale and manpower to do this.[/quote]

If a teacher does not take attendance, the default is present. Therefore this will not hurt (might actually help) the student.

If a sub does not take attendance, the default is present. Same as above, it will not hurt the student.

Tardies are only marked as absent if the student is too late to be marked as present. I believe the cut off is if they miss half the class, it is marked as absent. This will need to be looked into. There should be a way for the teacher to mark the time that the student arrived so that it can be checked later if needed.
