Attendance Calculation

To Calculate the Present Minutes

Take the end of school time and minus the check in time and convert to minutes to equal present minutes.

• Example 15:51 (3:51 pm) - 12:40 = 3 hours and 11 minutes or 191 minutes

To Calculate the Absent Minutes

376 (Instructional minutes in a full day from the Calendar Editor) - 191 present minutes = 185 absent minutes

To Calculate Present Percentage

191 (present minutes) divided by 376 (Instructional minutes in a full day from the Calendar Editor) = 50.79% so >50% = Full Day Present which would make the absence an Other because the student was not absent a half day or a full day
