AT-RT and AT-EM (Attendance)

Depending on your type of school, you will submit attendance via the AT-RT or the AT-EM report.

The following steps should be done PRIOR to running the export for this file:

•     Run the build enrollment data process.  For instructions  

•     For students who are expelled or suspended, OUT of school days of enrollment should be deleted for the days expelled or OSS.

•     OR

•     Withdraw students on the day the expulsion/OSS begins and re-enroll the student when they return to school. Re-activate the student’s schedule.

•     Refresh Attendance Analysis.  For instructions 

Fields in reports.  Field #9 applies to the AT-RT report only.

1.  School_number – match to the field that contains your school’s state assigned number OR enter the default value.

2.  STN-match to the field that contains your students’ state testing number (STN)

3.  Start date – already matched to the entry date field from the attendance analysis table.

4.  End date – already matched to the exit date field from the attendance analysis table.

5.  Days in attendance – already matched to the days in attendance field from the attendance analysis table.

6.  Total absences - already matched to the total absences field from the attendance analysis table. (these are the EXCUSED absences)

7.  Total absences unexcused - already matched to the total excused absences field from the attendance analysis table.

8.  Grade level – already matched to the grade year field from demographics table.

9.  School for Accountability - match to the field that contains the school number of the school accountable for the student's education. Generally this will be the same field as #1 unless the student lives outside the geographic boundaries of the school he/she attends.

You will want to create a sort that selects all students who have a zero in Current Year Active but may have an exit date. See below for the example.
